Molotov Now!

This is the audiozine version of our production of 7 Steps to Starting Your Own Jail Support Network Where You Live [AUDIOZINE] made in collaboration with Clover from PDX Jail Support. Enjoy!

This is Sprout and this is Charyan, and we are the hosts of Molotov Now!, on The Channel Zero Podcast Network, thank you for joining us on this episode of the podcast.

Today on the podcast we are joined by a member of PDX Jail Support to discuss their efforts creating a culture of mutual aid based around the idea of widespread community jail support. They have spent the last four years building a network of volunteers to stand outside local jails and connect with people coming out of jail. This is done with all arrestees, not simply when there is a need for increased jail support following a protest event. We will also be debuting the audiozine we collaborated on with them detailing how to build a jail support network where you live. We hope you find this episode as inspiring as we did. It really lit a fire in us to get something similar going here where we live. The potential for radicalization is immense in these highly vulnerable and personal connections.

On today's podcast we are going to be discussing two topics that we have been thinking deeply about recently. Relationship Anarchy, and Solitude vs Isolation. We hope that you enjoy our rambling nonsense since we are without a guest this month. So were going back to our roots and talking about some articles that The Harbor Rat Report is working on. These topics have been rattling around our cages in the past few weeks because of the fundamental unceasing nature of the movement work we do. The toll that it takes on a body is real, and only by connecting inter-personally with other beings, including ourselves, can we create the care networks we will need to sustain our movements.Music this Episode:Molotov Now! soundtrack by Pixel PassionateAnthem for My Beloved by Dinero MuertoLittle Boxes by Malvina ReynoldsLearning Curve by Escape From The Zoo!
