In this episode, Jess is joined by their friend, chosen family and comrade Jo Becker. Jo and Jess met at a Civil Resistance training course a few years back and have been in each others lives since. Jo (they/she) is currently doing their PhD in the field of autonomous spaces, prefigurative politics and degrowth. This is grounded in political organising bringing anti-hierarchical, abolitionist and climate justice perspectives/praxis together.
They can be reached as @treesnpeace on Instagram or @josephinebeckr on twitter - they use both platforms to chat politics, usually in form of anger and rage at what is happening in the world.
In this episode they cover so much ground - from imagining different economies and worlds, to the importance of true solidarity, to their different thoughts on how to call people into the work of social change and their shared passion and belief that things don’t have to be this way.

TW: Racism, suicidal ideation
In this episode, Jess Mally interviews Andre Henry, bestselling author, award-winning musician, and activist based in Los Angeles.
Jess and Andre cover so much ground in this conversation - from Andre’s journey into activism, including their awakening to systemic racism, their studies and exploration of armed struggle vs nonviolent resistance as a strategy, what healthy means to them and how our movement spaces desperately need to centre care, community and relationships to sow a better future into the soil of today.
Andre shares vulnerably and openly about their own journey with depression, the way out and how that journey taught them - among other things - how the body is a key strategic battleground in the work of liberation.
It’s an incredible conversation, but it ain't short ;) so grab a cuppa or listen in two parts - we promise it’s worth it!

From interrogating our intentions, to moving past feeling unable to move and act at all, they explore the role of a divine gaze in our social change work. Suhaiymah shares beautifully about her faith and how it impacts her work, about her work with the Nejma collective and so much more.

In this honest and transparent episode, Jess is joined by powerhouse and climate justice activist Mikaela Loach.
Mikaela is a climate justice activist, bestselling author of It’s Not That Radical: Climate Action to Transform Our World (April 2023), co-host of The YIKES Podcast, writer and 4th year medical student based in the United Kingdom. In 2020, Forbes, Global Citizen and BBC Woman's Hour named Mikaela as one of the most influential women in the UK climate movement. In 2021, she was one of three claimants on the "Paid To Pollute" case who took the UK government to court over the huge public payments they give to fossil fuel companies every year. Her work focuses on the intersections of the climate crisis with oppressive systems and making the climate movement a more accessible space.
In this episode Jess and Mikaela explore what climate justice actually means, how it seeks to tackle the root causes of the climate crisis, how we are all needed and have something to bring to the work and what role our own honesty and vulnerability plays on the journey,
Mikaela defines what healthy looks to her, the importance of choosing honesty over scarcity and “not pretending to know it all”!

T/W: mentions of suicide/crisis/illness
In this episode, Jess is joined by Nora Logan, in discussing her passion for disability justice including her raw and personal story about why she is passionate about health and wellness.
Nora is a writer, meditation teacher and the host of the podcast So, Life Wants You Dead, produced in collaboration with Soho House after winning their 'Soho Chance' competition in 2021.
In this conversation Nora shares her journey of going through a liver transplant and the recovery process in the face of an ableist and capitalist society. Nora and Jess explore that healthy is a practice more than a state of being, that it is intrinsically complicated in the world we live in and that everything - as always - is interconnected.

This is the first episode of the unedited The Third Way offering, normally available to Patrons of our 'Exclusive Content' Tier only, but because it's the first, I made it available for all tiers as well as on the general podcast feed as 'Unedited' so everyone can have a listen. It is literally unedited.
The audio quality isn't amazing - sorry about that! Will be resolved next time.
I talk about why Patreon, my hope for it and then also talk about (TW - I get raw and explicit) the shooting of Ralph Yarl and what we all need to do.
In regards to the actions mentioned, see below:
- Email Prosecutor Zachary Thompson in Missouri [email protected] and demand the immediate arrest of the shooter and that he be charged with appropriate charges
- Sign up to my course via www.jessmally.com/events
- Read 'It's Not That Radical' by Mikaela Loach and 'What White People Can Do Next' Emma Dabiri
- Get organised in whichever way calls to you. One way might be to join your Local Copwatch Groups
Thanks for tuning into the first episode. The next unedited episode will land in a month and will only be available for folks on the Exclusive Content tier
Much love

In this episode, Jess is joined by three wonderful Black women to unpack the topic that is COLOURISM.Colourism is a phenomenon that shows up in the Black community and other communities of colour across the world. It is also very present in media across all forms and understanding and dismantling Colourism is crucial for true social change and authentic diversity.It is not a new phenomenon by any stretch of the imagination and it has - over centuries of white supremacy across the globe - become yet another tool of oppression.Recent events have caused Jess and Cephas to change the regularly scheduled program and dedicate this episode to this conversation.As always, we don’t claim to have all the answers, but we found it important to center the voices of darker skinned women in this conversation and I (hi Jess here ;)) have learnt SO much from listening to their experiences.I hope you will too.Please follow our guests and their work on social media.You can find Aisha on IG:@disneydiariesofablackgirl@theehoshen (her jewellery business)Feven runs an amazing candle business, you can find her on IG:@soyandjoyukYou can find our podcast via the handles below and Jess and Cephas are there too.@thethirdwaypodcast (IG) @thethirdwaypod (twitter)@jessmally @cephasazariahWe also suggested you do some further reading, here the books we mentioned:Do Better - Spiritual Activism for fighting and healing from White Supremacy by Rachel RickettsThe Color Complex: The Politics of Skin Color in a New Millennium
