I Don’t Understand What America is Doing! - A Conversation with Joanna Johnson May 12, 2026

Show notes

Why are we at war? Why are they trying to trick us into thinking the economy is good as if we don’t pay our own bills? Why do they keep taking the White House keep taking on unnecessary renovations in DC rather than paying for things his citizens need like cancer research and food stamps? Are we seriously taking a full detour back to segregation and simping for billionaires? Finally, why is Obama meeting with Mark Carney? Lots of things to discuss and one great person to discuss them with.

The Return of Jim Crow: A Conversation with the ACLU’s Sophia Lin Lakin May 05, 2026

Show notes

Don’t think for a moment that the dismantling of the 1965 Voting Rights Act stops with disenfranchising Black voters. Once Republicans are finished suppressing Black votes, women are next, gay Americans will follow, and then they’ll come for the working poor. Nobody is safe once if the powers that be are allowed to dismantle democracy. Dismantling the voting rights act isn’t a Black issue. It’s a EVERYBODY issue and everybody needs to ACT LIKE IT.

The Boy Wants A Ballroom! A Conversation with Joanna Johnson Apr 28, 2026

Show notes

We don’t know if the shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner was staged. What we do know, is that everyone involved acted incredibly strangely before, during, and after, and within an hour of the event there was a calculated onslaught of propaganda from the White House press room to the entirety of the right wing internet around the necessity of Trump getting his ballroom. And if you don’t think that’s weird…you’re not paying attention.

Men Behaving Badly : A conversation with Arielle Fodor Apr 21, 2026

Show notes

Between the on line Rape Academy, where men taught other men, and shared videos, of how to drug and rape your wife, to the constant drip drip drip of the Epstein files where everyone involved (except the woman) is walking free, to the recent fall from grace of California gubernatorial candidate, and Democratic front runner, Eric Swalwell, every day feels like a fresh new attack on women - how we’re perceived, what we’re good for, what laws we get, and how powerful men abuse us daily and get away with it. So what are we going to do about it?

Does America Hate Women? A conversation with Monte Mader Apr 07, 2026

Show notes

Christian nationalists are saying the quiet part out loud, that they don’t believe women should have a role in public facing society. For them it’s about dependency, an excuse for unbridled hierarchy, and a select group deciding who has worth and who doesn’t. If this isn’t something you agree with, now is the time to understand this reality, and use the levers of power we have before they are taken from us. These people are not fucking around. Neither can we.

These People are Going to Kill US: With Dr. Anahita Dua Mar 31, 2026

Show notes

As There’s a lot going on in America right now from No Kings to the war but as today’s guest, Dr. Anahita Dua reminds us we still need to talk about America’s health, because with RFK Jr. running the Department of Health and Human Services, we really are in grave danger. No pun intended. I understand it’s difficult to take your eye off the Trump chaos but what’s he’s doing to our country’s health is only affecting our personal health and it can’t continue..

Why No Kings Matters: With Indivisible’s Ezra Levin Mar 24, 2026

Show notes

As Ezra Levin reminds us, No Kings is not just something we HAVE to do but something we GET to do. That we get to be a part of history by sending a very public message to our country, and the world, that we are mad as hell and we’re not going to take it anymore. But this time, it’s not enough to just go, we need to be bringing people with us. This administration is an existential threat to America and the world. No Kings is a day of community, that doesn’t just protest our bad president but brings together good people. Authoritarians want us to feel hopeless, like they are inevitable, but days like No Kings and the actions we take with our people afterward, is the antidote. We come in peace. But we come in numbers.

Is the News Killing You? : A Conversation with Michael Steele Mar 17, 2026

Show notes

If you’re paying attention right now you know America is off the rails. We’re at war in the middle east. We’re being attacked at home by ICE. Everything is more expensive. Our government is calling protesters terrorists and terrorists allies. We’re killing people in custody. Women are losing their rights. Our elections are in danger and the Trump administration is threatening to pull the broadcast licenses of any news organization who reports that things are going anything less than perfect. It’s literal chaos. So what do we do?

Is this a Holy War? : A Conversation with former Evangelical Christian fundamentalist, Tim Whitaker Mar 10, 2026

Show notes

If there are American leaders making military or legislative decisions based in faith rather than facts, that is a clear, and flagrant, violation of the separation of church and state. Commanders who send troops into combat have an obligation to the law, the mission, and the men and women under their command. If they think they are fulfilling some long prophesied Armageddon we need to hold them accountable.
