Every Wednesday at 6 PM ET, Jen Pan, Ariella Thornhill, and Paul Prescod host a new episode of The Jacobin Show, offering socialist perspectives on class and capitalism in the twenty-first century, the failures of liberalism, and the prospects of rebuilding a left labor movement in the US. This is the podcast version of the show from May 5, 2021, hosted by Jen and Paul.
Do we need the internet to build a working-class movement? We discuss the perks and the pitfalls of using YouTube, Twitter, and other online platforms for socialist organizing. Later, Les Leopold, director of the Labor Institute, joins us to talk about his Runaway Inequality workshops and organizing working people around demands for economic justice.

Folge vom 03.05.2021Michael and Us: A Tasteful ThicknessA podcast about political cinema and our crumbling world. Hosted by Will Sloan and Luke Savage. We finally tackle the ultimate movie about '80s Wall Street excess, AMERICAN PSYCHO (2000), which refracts Bret Easton Ellis through the prisms of Mary Harron and Christian Bale. We discuss its central performance, its many ambiguities, and why it is a quintessentially late-'90s statement on the '80s. PLUS: how capitalism is prolonging the pandemic, and why the drug companies are not your friends.
