Journalist Sean Morrow joins the program to discuss the DOJ's latest Epstein files dump, as well as the story writ large. Sean gives his thoughts on Jeffrey Epstein's connections to Israeli intelligence, his infamously sketchy "suicide," and what kinds of opportunities this creates for revolutionaries who want to overthrow the gang of sick pedophiles who run the world and the system that enables them.

CORRECTION: It was Ezra Klein who said that Epstein's pedophilic sex trafficking and networking with the elites were two separate spheres of his life. LOL.

Jamie and Sam discuss ICE's second high-profile killing of a US citizen this month. Who was Alex Pretti, and what has the response been from the people, the politicians, the media, and the "business community"? Trump to erstwhile border patrol commander Greg Bovino: "You're fired!" Marjorie Taylor Greene tells MAGA crowd enough is enough, warns them they're being incited to civil war. What's going on in the Trump coalition? Are Republicans actually concerned about moderate swing voters?

Keep an eye out for our BONUS ep, wherein we discuss the polar vortex and Thomas Friedman's latest baby-brained op-ed.

Jamie and Sam are joined by a member of the Crimethinc editorial collective to unpack Sam's viral hot take about agent provocateurs. Are there, as Hasan Piker and many others believe, FBI agents and other nefarious actors trying to escalate modern day protests into brick-throwing riots? Or is this a conspiracy theory that serves only counter-insurgent purposes? Our guest helps us separate fact from fiction.

ALSO: Sam gives a reportback from his recent trip to Minneapolis, and Jamie gives a brief history of COINTELPRO and COINTELPRO-adjacent ops.

Jamie and Sam discuss ICE's cold-blooded murder of 37-year-old mother of three Renee Nicole Good last week in Minneapolis: how it went down, who she was, and details on the pig who killed her. ICE as pathetic losers trying desperately to assert their fragile masculinity. Some of the other people ICE has killed. The responses from the Democrats and Republicans, the robust response from protesters, and why this is not the time for performative identity politics. Is America headed for a new Civil War, and is civil war necessary for revolution? Plus: Some constructive criticism for Hasan Piker.

The PG crew is back together and boy, is there news to discuss. Jamie and Sam unpack the Trump administration's brazen kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro of Venezuela and his wife, Cilia Flores: the news from over the weekend, the political context, new president Delcy Rodríguez, the responses from various quarters, the politics of dancing, and the petty reason Trump didn't install opposition leader María Corina Machado. Is "The Donroe Doctrine" the most postmodern thing ever invented by a dying empire as it frantically thrashes about? How should anti-state partisans orient ourselves towards moments like these? What will become of the radical, bottom-up experiments of Venezuela's communes? And what, if anything, is to be done?

Note: this episode was recorded before ICE's murder of Renee Good in Minneapolis

Geo Maher's book that Jamie mentioned: Building the Commune: Radical Democracy in Venezuela

Jamie welcomes the illustrious Jake Flores to the program to discuss Richard Donner's very eighties take on A Christmas Carol, 'Scrooged' (1988). In this modern retelling, Bill Murray stars as Frank Cross, a selfish and greedy TV executive who cares only for his bottom line, until he is visited by three ghosts on Christmas Eve, who...you know the drill. We discuss the movie's insanely stacked cast (Bobcat Goldthwait, Carol Kane, David Johansen of the New York Dolls!), its take on corporate media, and its political message. Is A Christmas Carol revolutionary, or merely reformist? Plus: What our boy Marx thought of Charles Dickens.

Join Sam and Reverend David Black of the First Presbyterian Church of Chicago for this year's Christmas Special as the two explore the meaning of Christmas and what it has to do with fighting the good fight. Was Jesus a revolutionary, if so what kind? What does it mean to be a human? And what can the holiday spirit teach us about this humanity?

All this and more in this year's Christmas Special.

Jamie is having a comically bad month and the news is grim. Please indulge the Party Girls in a chill, lowkey episode where they examine a number of human interest stories, including: the meaning of Christmas, the Pisces Co-worker, the anti-sharing movement, MFs getting tattoos under anesthesia, and Jamie's page on Canary Mission, which links to her Onlyfans. They also read and reply to some listener comments for their new "mailbag" segment and say a few words about Asad Haider.

Jamie is joined by Bryan Quinby, formerly of Street Fight Radio and currently of Guys: With Bryan Quinby, to discuss Yorgos Lanthimos' latest piece of wackypants cinema. In this remake of the 2003 Korean film "Save the Green Planet," a wingnut named Teddy (Jesse Plemons) kidnaps girlboss big pharma CEO Michelle Fuller (Emma Stone) because he thinks she's an alien who's killing the bees. Themes of paranoia, atomization, niche internet culture, and...Stav?! Bryan uses his PhD in guy-ology to determine what kind of guy Teddy is.
