Luigi Mangione: One Year Later

Luigi Mangione: One Year Later

Author: Jamie Peck and Sam Beard December 4, 2025 Duration: 1:12:35

Exactly one year after the killing of United "Healthcare" CEO Brian Thompson, the PG crew looks back on one year of Luigi Mangione. They recap what's happened in the case so far, shout out Luigi's biggest supporters, and give updates on what's happening in Luigi's trio of court dates this week. At issue is the evidence police collected from Luigi's backpack upon his arrest in Altoona, PA, which the defense is moving to have excluded because the police did not read him his Miranda rights as required by law.

The crew also announces an exciting new project from the December 4th Legal Committee, namely, a book! Depose: Luigi Mangione and the Right to Health, due out this coming May from Ill Will Editions, examines the public reaction to Luigi Mangione's alleged crime, placing it within the great western tradition of tyrannicide (the killing of a tyrant) and laying out a roadmap for how Americans could use this as a jumping off point to create a mass movement to guarantee everyone the right to health, once and for all. The lion's share of the royalties will be split between the Luigi Mangione Legal Defense Fund and other health justice projects.

Hosted by Jamie Peck and Sam Beard, Party Girls is a conversation that blends sharp political analysis with the intimate, connective tissue of gossip. Jamie, known for her work on The Majority Report and other leftist commentary, teams up with Sam, a Chicago-based organizer, to create a space where theory meets the messy reality of daily life. The discussions here aren't dry lectures; they're lively, often funny, and deeply human, weaving together perspectives from news, music, and culture through a specific lens. You'll hear them dissect current events and political structures with the same earnest curiosity they apply to sharing stories and personal reflections. This podcast operates on the idea that the personal is political and the political can be surprisingly personal, finding the threads of collective struggle and joy in unexpected places. It’s a mix of thoughtful critique and casual, comedic rapport that makes complex ideas feel accessible and urgent. Tune in for a unique fusion of perspectives that challenges how we think about community, power, and the stories we tell each other.
