We've been on vacation for the last week and a half, so we've decided to unlock some premium content from a couple of months ago for our subscribers-slash-not-yet-patrons. Enjoy!

When the alleged 'Florida Communist Front' outlined a concrete proposal to begin, fight and win a Protracted People's War from the Everglades, Antifada just had to take a deep dive into this dialectical swamp.

How can revolutionary forces utilize mangrove trees and reptilian fauna to overthrown imperialism in the capitalist core? How do we apply praxis from the Maoist insurgency in 1920s-40s to the great state of Florida today? How will FCF unite with the DPRK to get the NUKES that can defeat the running dogs of the imperialist bourgeoisie?

All will be revealed within.. that is, if this entire document isn't some incredibly well-honed satire. Regardless, the crew had a lot of fun with it!

Sean joins the DAMNED in an Antifada crossover episode with Pod Damn America for a special History is a Weapon about the Industrial Workers of the World, aka the wobblies. The anarchistic-Marxistic union organized hundreds of thousands of US workers with a goal of becoming "one big union" and abolishing class society. Jake Flores, Sean KB, and Alex Ptak recount some of their more dramatic adventures and how the economy of that era compares to the present moment. How can radicals of today learn lessons from the historical IWW without fetishizing them as simply badass soapbox militants with a snappy songbook?

Pavlos stays after-hours to indulge our wildest fantasies with his illicit tales of sultry Syntagma street action. The Hellenic hunk's voyeuristic remembrances of battles with the police, the parliament, and the KKE, gets us too hot to last the full 30 minutes, and the last part of the episode we shamefully walk back from our fetishistic follies.

Psychedelic Bordigist, Pavlos Roufos (@PRoufos), joins us to talk about the years leading up to, the proximate causes of, and the aftermath of the Greece sovereign debt crisis.

How the post-war dictatorial regime cared more about repressing the left than economic development. How the social-democratic PASOK became more than just a party, but the agents behind both Keynesian and Neoliberal reforms. How entering the Eurozone ended up going in such a shitty direction for Greece and the rest of the PIIGS.

Most importantly: we talk about the lessons from years of street actions, general strikes and mutual aid and why it was that Syriza, a parliamentary leftish formation, arose and ultimately failed to break with austerity and what that means for the future of the global working class movement.

We have some hottt 'audio riot porn' bonus episode that will drop shortly. To become a patron go to www.Patreon.com/TheAntifada

Pavlos' "A Happy Future is a Thing of the Past: on the Greek Crisis and other Disasters" will be available shortly from Reaktion press in Europe and the Chicago University Press shortly.

Antifascist activist Jay Firestone joins us to elaborate on his three month infiltration of New York’s Alt Right including Daily Stormer, TRS, and the New York Forum. He describes his motivations for the project (communism), his take on how to fight white nationalism, and tells us some nixed title ideas. We close the episode with a discussion of the limits of antifascism and voting and what we can do instead.

On this most terrifying Halloween episode, we are joined by the Lit Crit Guy (@TheLitCritGuy) for a discussion of Gothic Marxism, zombie neoliberalism, horror movies, and more!

What is Gothic Marxism and how is it useful for understanding the horrors of capitalism? How do the stories a society scares itself with reflect its material concerns? Consumerist zombies and aristocratic vampires; Elizabeth Bathory has nothing on Peter Thiel. The dialectical tension between Goth and punk. Can this backward-looking aesthetic ever be harnessed in service of proletarian liberation, or is Jamie being a reactionary hypocrite when she dresses like a witch and listens to Joy Division?

The crew finishes things out with takes on the movies Mandy, Hereditary, and First Reformed (warning: contains spoilers).

Happy Hallowe'en, you dirty commies!!!

This week, the crew is joined by Shyam Khanna, EIC of Commune (@commune_mag), and Andy Battle, doctoral student in US History at CUNY, for a discussion of leftist media and public transit.

Shyam unpacks Commune Mag's project of chronicling the popular movements of our time while providing constructive visions for revolution. Hell yeah.

Andy B discusses his article for Commune Mag, "The Subway Belongs To Us." From its construction in the early 1900s, to the city's best attempt at social democracy (1930s-1970s), to the present day, the subway has been a constant site of tension between notions of public transit as civic good vs. instrument of capital accumulation. What have people around the world been doing to reclaim this space for themselves? Here's an idea: freak across Europe on a counterfeit Eurail pass. No offense, train-hoppin' crusties, but we think we've leveled up.

Stay tuned for our bonus ep featuring more hott sexxxy champagne socialist praxis!

In this very interactive episode, the skeleton crew gives thanks to Comrade Gritty, the first sports mascot who is actually mocking the fans. We then take questions from you, the listeners, on a broad range of topics including: witches & the occult, mandatory voting, Jamie's political tendency, why Sean says "deadass" so much, how often we question our beliefs, and the ever spicy Angela Nagle controversy.
