4.9 out of 5 stars from 1.2k ratings
  • great resource

    this show is so helpful and a really good intro to all kinds of important topics. the only reason it’s 4 stars instead of 5 is that a lot of the hosts are pretty deep in millenial cringe humor in a way that i personally find really hard to listen to

    Gave me a jumping off point into anarchist theory and community. Also just a generally good podcast for people who want to learn some practical skills.

    I have binged a handful of episodes after discovering your podcast yesterday. Margaret, I instantly adore you and all your plethora of insights and experience. What a find. I will be recommending you widely. Keep up the incredible, thoughtful discussions. You tap into a depth on these topics that is rare to come by, particularly with your medical episodes.

    Activists really have a particular sing-song inflection that stops these being good binge material, but the info and tips are great!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Kafa on Modern Warfare in Ukraine
Q: What is it like to be an anarchist in a state military, and what drives that decision?
They argue there is no contradiction: fighting for beliefs and human rights under occupation, emphasizing democratic, self-organized units within a broader military framework and viewing resistance as a moral imperative regardless of traditional political alignment.
Kafa on Modern Warfare in Ukraine
Q: If you're comfortable, how did you become an anarchist?
The guest explains a birth into a free environment in Crimea, later becoming involved in underground anarchist scenes in Kyiv after displacement, describing a feminist and trans-friendly community that shaped their path.
Together or Not At All with Bex
Q: Why did you write this zine and what isn't it a guide for?
The zine started from researching resources for a land project, aiming to outline how to hold land in common and to discuss different legal structures; it isn't a comprehensive manual on how to acquire land or manage finances, and it deliberately focuses on ownership frameworks rather than step-by-step buy-in or jurisdiction-specific rules.
Together or Not At All with Bex
Q: Could you introduce yourself with your name, pronouns, and a little bit about just who you are? Who are you?
I'm Bex, using they/them pronouns, and I live at a collective land project; I've spent years researching and writing about collective ownership to help others understand how to organize land and power more fairly.
The KO Intiative on Supporting Trans People Fleeing Hostile States
Q: What does the new ICE policy mean for trans people and immigrants?
It forces visa applicants to declare biological sex at birth and can lead to deportation if markers are not matching; it also gives ICE broader leeway to detain people based on appearance or perceived status, creating a chilling effect.
