I just saw that Jamie from The Antifada is doing a new podcast called "Everybody Loves Communism". I have a lot in my podcatcher queue already, so I was wondering if anyone else had tried it, before I take the time to listen to it.
I stopped listening to The Antifada a while back when she was still on it, after the leftcom stuff started to be too much for me, which is why I even ask lol.
Yeah I liked her as well, I only just even learned that she wasn't on Antifada anymore, which is also where I saw this new podcast. I just wasn't too interested if it was more leftcom stuff lol. I never listened to the Majority Report, but some of that treatment definitely came through in episodes of Antifada where she talked about it.
Please report back your impression though!
Yeah, the deep leftcom stuff often had me skipping through or just taking a break for a while. There was definitely periods where I was basically tuning in to listen to Jamie talk about organising vaguely lefty goth parties more than for the politics. It was very much a 'background while I'm working' sort of pod for me and I stopped before she even left I think.
Same here pretty much. Once I got down to only listening to a few episodes here and there, I just unsubscribed. At the point I stopped, I think it was after they had switched to alternating episodes, but I may be misremembering that
That rings a bell for me too actually.
