Zine Club *Halloween Special* The Devil’s Night

Author: Jamie Peck and Sam Beard October 31, 2024 Duration: 1:05:13

In this Party Girls Zine Club Spooktacular Halloween Special Jamie and Sam dive into The Devil's Night: On the Rebellious Spirit of Halloween, which traces the history of the holiday back thousands of years to its proto-Pagan roots. Where do our Halloween traditions come from? How did its supernatural roots morph into a storied history of rebellion, rioting and arson that swept American metropolitan cores year after year? How did the forces of counterinsurgency specifically target Halloween in order to snuff out its ungovernable potential? What is Jamie’s costume this year? All this and more on the second installment of the Party Girls Zine Club.

This Zine was anonymously authored and published in Mask Magazine in 2015. A few years later it was revised and re-published by Ill Will Editions.

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.
