In this episode, Jamie and Sam talk about John 'Jack' Mazurek's March 29 bond hearing, in which he was granted a $75,000 bond and assigned to house arrest, a victory for the Stop Cop City movement. During that hearing, the prosecution spoke extensively about the Zapatistas and the "autonomous zone" in Chiapas, Mexico, as well as the Invisible Committee, the anonymous french ultra-left collective targeted by French anti-terror and law enforcement agencies. The PG crew unpacks, drawing historical parallels with the First Red Scare.
