America has spoken, and there are now only 77 days left until Donald Trump is the president of the United States….again. Jamie and Sam reflect on this week's electoral results. Why did the democrats get swept and who is to blame? How can we trust our fellow man when 72,000,000 of them literally just voted for fascism? How did Americans resist the orange man the first time, and what ought we do now to prepare for his second term? All this and more in this week's Special Electoral Coverage.

In a rare look behind the paywall, this week’s Bonus episode has been jailbroken and unleashed to the insatiable culture-hungry masses as a FREE EPISODE! Jamie and Sam are joined by Super Deluxe VIP Friend-of-the-Pod Fellatia G (AKA Lena NW), a multidisciplinary artist and all around deviant.
The three of them dive into a collective criticism of Joker: Folie à Deux, the highly controversial sequel to the smash blockbuster hit Joker (2019). A freshly (?) Jokerfied Fellatia G comes hot-and-heavy as she describes just what about that rather peculiar musical floated her boat. Jamie, perhaps not as sold on the direction of the film, offers some scathing rebukes of its attempt at artistry. And Sam, as per usual, cannot help but condemn Arthur Fleck’s nihilist political frame as a dead-end, utterly devoid of all potentiality.
All this and more in this week's Cultural Marxism: Joker 2.

In this Party Girls Zine Club Spooktacular Halloween Special Jamie and Sam dive into The Devil's Night: On the Rebellious Spirit of Halloween, which traces the history of the holiday back thousands of years to its proto-Pagan roots. Where do our Halloween traditions come from? How did its supernatural roots morph into a storied history of rebellion, rioting and arson that swept American metropolitan cores year after year? How did the forces of counterinsurgency specifically target Halloween in order to snuff out its ungovernable potential? What is Jamie’s costume this year? All this and more on the second installment of the Party Girls Zine Club.
This Zine was anonymously authored and published in Mask Magazine in 2015. A few years later it was revised and re-published by Ill Will Editions.

Writer, theorist, and UC Berkeley professor (and communist) Jasper Bernes joins us for a discussion of the life and work of Fredric Jameson, an absolute beast of Marxist philosophy and cultural critique who passed away last month following a long and illustrious life.
Following a summary of Jameson's career and a discussion of his epistemological approach, the crew digs into some of his ideas. What is it about the postmodern/neoliberal era that simultaneously creates amnesia and nostalgia? How are humans more atomized than ever, yet losing any real sense of individuality? What purpose can utopian science fiction, like that of Jameson protege Kim Stanley Robinson, serve as we try to find a way out of this exhausted system called capitalism? And, in this era in which nothing is shocking, can there be such a thing as truly radical art?

Jamie and her pal Lena NW a.k.a. Fellatia G discuss Coralie Fargeat's feminist(?) body horror flick "The Substance" (2024), which stars Demi Moore as an actress/TV exercise instructor who goes to extreme lengths to preserve her youth with a shady beauty treatment.

This is the inaugural episode of a brand new Party Girls series—Global Uprisings—where Jamie and Sam dive into revolts, revolutions and insurgencies as they spring forth around the planet. We are living through an unprecedented wave of uprisings and rebellions that have been sweeping the globe for the past 15 years, tune in to Party Girls - Global Uprisings to stay in the know.
In this episode Jamie and Sam explore the unfolding revolution in Myanmar, shining a light on the pro-democracy movement that has taken the country by storm in the wake of a 2021 military coup. Using "The Revolution in Myanmar," an interview conducted between Ill Will Editions and Azad, a freedom fighter in Myanmar, as its primary source, this episode also provides historical context and analysis of the dynamic and unfolding situation. What is the role of the revolutionary Organization in all of this? Why should communist partisans take an interest in a revolution if, at the end of the day, it is essentially fighting for bourgeois democracy? All of this and more on this weeks episode of Party Girls.

Remember the (bad) far-right UK Race Riots that happened this past summer? Justin, a fellow traveler and Party Girls listener, offers a well researched account of what happened and why. In this special listener-submitted reading, Sam dives into Justin's report, which includes some key takeaways and conclusions that we should hold close as we move deeper into our very uncertain 21st century.

Jamie and Sam discuss the mass shooting committed by the NYPD in the New York City subway this past Sunday. In pursuit of an alleged fare jumper, the cops wound up shooting the suspect, two random people, and one of their own. The city of New York spent $150 million in extra overtime last year in order to apprehend $104,000 worth of fare jumpers. The answer is clear: defund and abolish the NYPD. Also: fare strike!
The PG crew also gives updates on a pro-Palestine action in Richmond, VA, as well as some good news from the Sol Fund 3 trial in Atlanta.

The Party Girls crew digs into the first Kamala Harris vs. Donald Trump presidential debate. Our favorite/least favorite things each candidate said, Abdul from the Taliban, the dog eating thing, etc. It's dominating the news so we might as well talk about it.
We also cover the protests and looting that erupted in Washington, D.C. in response to the police killing of Justin Robinson, a 26-year-old black man who had been rendered unconscious by a car accident when the cops approached his vehicle, guns drawn. How might the simple act of retaliatory smash-and-grab crack open the door to a new world?

This past week, former Red Brigades member Leonardo Bertulazzi was arrested in Argentina after 40 years on the run. Prompted by this news, Jamie and Sam dive into the history of this Italian Revolutionary Marxist organization, which operated in various forms from the 1970s straight into the 2000s. From kidnappings to kneecappings, robberies to bombings, the Red Brigades operated at a high level of intensity for an impressively long time. What, if anything, can we learn from these heavy hitters? Can a look into their storied history be enough to turn Jamie into a Tankie? Find out in this week's bonus episode.

As promised, Jamie and Sam dive back into DNC '24 in all its splendor. Is AOC actually just a revolutionary communist sleeper cell waiting to take the throne before returning to her leftist roots? Is Obama still the smoothest talker around? Why did virtually no militants show up to throw down? And which of Jeffrey Epstein's besties took the stage at the Democrats' flagship event? Find out all of this and more on this week's episode of Party Girls.

What do Maoists and Anarchists have in common? Among other things, they both hate the counterinsurgent 'left' insistent upon defanging the anti-genocide movement. This week on Party Girls, Sam is joined by Tai Lee, a communist writer from Brooklyn, and Hannah, an organizer from Chicago, to talk about the DNC and why it sucked (hint: it had to do with the aforementioned counterinsurgency).

Our Silicon Valley overlords are not content with merely ruling the world; they want us to think they are doing it for the greater good. In this patrons-only bonus, Kate Willett and the Party Girls crew read and break down Silicon Valley capitalist Marc Andreessen's "Techno-Optimist Manifesto," which presents old school reactionary elitism in a stupid new package.
