Chris Mathias on Antifa Infiltration of Patriot Front and Militant Antifascism Today

by

This week, we’re sharing an interview with Chris Mathias, author of To Catch A Fascist: The Fight to Expose the Radical Right, a book about militant antifascists and researchers in the so-called USA with a particular insight into Vincent, an anarchist who infiltrated Patriot Front and helped facilitate the sabotage event some know as Patriot Fail in December of 2021, after six months undercover as a member and official photographer for the group and leaking chats and pics who, with the help of other researchers and Unicorn Riot, led to the doxing of over 80 PF chuds. For the chat we talk about the construct of Antifa, antifascist research, adaptations among fascists and thus how antifascists do work, and other topics.

If you’re listening to the radio edition, you can find an extra 30 minutes via the podcast post at our website.

MUSICAL GUEST:  The Æther Project

For over a decade, Asheville’s The Æther Project has practiced long-form free improvisation, guided by deep listening, serious play, and utter openness to the experience of each moment. Anchored by vocalist Scott Voloshin’s stream of consciousness, this confederation of sonic explorers weaves a mycelial network of cellists, keyboardists, saxophonists, effects-laden guitarists, found sound artists, and percussionists into an ever-shifting psychedelic mélange. Although primarily a recording project, the group has made occasional live appearances at the Asheville Fringe Festival, Asheville Improv Festival, The Odd, and The Sly Grog.

Scott Voloshin (he/him) — vocals, violin
Daniel Walton (he/him) — cello, vocals
Emilio Ancaya (he/him) — hand percussion, sound samples, vocals
Erik Moellering (he/him) — electric guitar, vocals
Will Jernigan (he/him) — keyboard, bass guitar, vocals
Justin Kuske (he/him) — electric guitar
Ross Montsinger (he/him) — drums

song:  Vacuum Man (Daniel Walton)

The Case of the Spokane 3 + Ontological Exhaustion

by

This episode features two segments.

The Case of the Spokane 3

On June 11, 2025, there was a demonstration of hundreds of people in Spokane, Washington to defend two young asylum-seekers, Cesar Alexander Alvarez Perez and Joswar Slater Rodriguez Torres, who were kidnapped by ICE while appearing for a scheduled check-in. The next day, the Trump administration’s DOJ sent out a memo to all districts to prioritize prosecution of anti-ICE protestors and publicize the repression. Months later, 9 people were brought to Federal trial, with 6 of them taking a non-cooperating plea deal. The remaining 3,  refused to back down and were taken to trial and were convicted of conspiracy.  For this episode we’re joined by Hadley, a member of the Spokane 3 Support Committee to speak about those defendants ( Justice Forral, Bajun Mavalwalla II, and Jac Archer ), their case and struggle for justice.

Ontological Exhaustion

After that, you’ll hear an interview by audio comrades at Radio Ausbruch out of Frieberg, Germany, with an interview of Marina Christodoulou on her essay “TOWARD A GENEALOGY OF ONTOLOGICAL EXHAUSTION: becoming indignant-to-life ( ontological indignation ) before becoming exhausted-to-life ( ontological exhaustion )“. Check our shownotes for links to the original essay and more from Ausbruch, which is a fellow member of the A-Radio Network of anarchist and anti-authoritarian radios and podcasts.

by

This week – join DJSmittymon  as he welcomes  “Savannah Hatfield” to the Positive Vibes’ Early Morning Music Sessions..  tune in this Tuesday starting around 9am –   We will be playing new music from and talking about Savannah’s new album Over and Under which just dropped in July.  

MUSICAL GUEST:  Savannah Hatfield   

Savannah Hatfield is an indie folk songbird, who weaves together intricate fingerpicking, restless lyricism, and hypnotic vocals to meet these strange times. Think late capitalistic existential dread with a hopeful cherry on top. She carefully crafts acoustic soundscapes by way of droning melodies, cathartic vocal builds, and slow, sweet resolve.
