Happy pod-a-versary to us! Jamie Peck and Sam Beard celebrate one year of Party Girls by answering a bunch of listener questions. How many years does the American empire have left? How hopeful are we that we’ll see serious social change within our lifetimes? How many times a day do we think about Lenin? And why does Sam dress like a zoomer now? All this, plus we reveal which super exciting guest we have coming on in February and what book(s) you should read to prepare.
