Our political system—and the way we talk about it—often flattens the true diversity of American voters, especially in so-called “red states.” But millions of progressives live in places too often dismissed as conservative strongholds, even in the Deep South. Today, Adam sits down with comedian Trae Crowder—best known for his viral persona, the Liberal Redneck—to unpack the overlooked nuances of America’s political landscape.

The American prison system isn’t just designed to keep inmates locked up—it’s built to keep the rest of us from truly seeing what happens inside. Rikers Island, New York City’s largest jail, has long been notorious for its inhumane conditions, including mistreatment, sexual abuse, and inmates being held in solitary confinement for hundreds of days. But understanding the full extent of these horrors is nearly impossible without firsthand experience. Today, Adam speaks with David Campbell and Jarrod Shanahan—criminal justice reformers who were incarcerated at Rikers after protesting—about their time inside and their new book, City Time: On Being Sentenced to Rikers Island. Find Jarrod and David’s book at http://www.factuallypod.com/books

The Trump administration is actively working to erase the existence of trans people through policy and legislation. But no law can erase the 1.6 million trans people living in America, nor the reality of their lives and experiences. These are real people facing real consequences—impacting their rights, safety, and livelihoods. This week, Adam sits down with his friends and fellow comedians Dylan McKeever, River Butcher, and Sammy Mowrey, who all happen to be trans, to talk about what it’s like to navigate this moment in America as a trans person.

The concept of privacy has drastically eroded over the past 30 years. The internet made our personal data more accessible than ever, but the most alarming development yet? Even your own face is no longer private. This week, Adam sits down with Kashmir Hill, New York Times reporter and author of Your Face Belongs to Us: A Tale of AI, a Secretive Startup, and the End of Privacy, to discuss how companies are exploiting our most personal information—including our very identities—for profit, and what that means for the future of privacy. Find Kashmir’s book at http://www.factuallypod.com/books.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are actively trying to burn down the federal government. Federal workers are being fired en masse, with no regard for their roles or the devastating impact their removal will have on everyday Americans. As the country’s largest employer, the federal government’s gutting won’t just affect those losing their jobs—it will ripple outward, impacting millions of families and, ultimately, all Americans. Today, Adam is joined by Max Stier, CEO and president of the Partnership for Public Service, to break down who has been affected, the extent of the damage, and what it would take to rebuild the ruins of our federal government.

Last time we faced a Trump administration, people flooded the streets in protest. But this time feels different. Even as we watch our government being systematically dismantled, the response seems muted. Are we just exhausted? Or is something else at play? And more importantly—does protest still work, or is there a more effective way to protect our future from a newly entrenched autocracy? This week, Adam speaks with friend of the show Dr. Dana Fisher about what we actually need to be doing. Find Dana’s book at http://www.factuallypod.com/books and find Dana here:
