About this episode
Luigi Mangione has taken the nation by storm! In the wake of his arrest for the killing of United Healthcare CEO/public enemy #1 Brian Thompson, Jamie and Sam dive into this newly minted American folk hero’s story. From his tony upbringing in Towson, MD and Ivy League education, to the chronic lower back pain that may have radicalized him, to the jumble of political views he expressed online, to his imminent prison wedding to Jamie, the crew examines how he got here. They also give some background on “propaganda of the deed,” an anarchist tactic with a long and bloody history, and evaluate its current revolutionary potential.
