Listen Now: Good Things - How to Fight Back Through Giving
Good Things from Lemonada Media is a podcast about the good people in the world who are rolling up their sleeves and working hard to make things better. Each week, we'll be talking about this country's most complex and confounding issues in an effort to affect systemic change, with a rotating cast of incredible guests and Lemonada hosts. From the dire condition of the American foster care system to the decline of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion initiatives, protecting democracy, and more, we’re focusing on solutions – with the people putting them into action In this episode, as the federal government has been making unprecedented funding cuts, many communities are facing more uncertainty and less support. In response, the Marguerite Casey Foundation is making a bold move: they’re distributing $130 million this year to organizations working for racial and economic justice. In this episode, Carmen Rojas, the foundation’s president and CEO, gets into the reasons behind the move, which organizations will benefit and how this funding aims to fill critical gaps. This episode is presented by the Marguerite Casey Foundation. MCF supports leaders who work to shift the balance of power in their communities toward working people and families, and who have the vision and capacity for building a truly representative economy.

Introducing: Podcrushed (featuring Eddie Redmayne)
We’re turning our feed over to one of our favorite podcasts: Podcrushed. Every week, hosts Penn Badgley (acclaimed actor from Netflix’s YOU), Nava Kavelin, and Sophie Ansari interview artists, authors, and experts to explore the tender, turbulent world of middle school, and relive the canon events of adolescence that shaped them. From first crushes and heartbreaks, to family dynamics and identity formation, Podcrushed brings equal parts levity and gravity to every conversation, with guests like Ariana Grande, Matthew McConaughey, Jenna Ortega…and, as you’ve no doubt guessed from the title of this episode, Eddie Redmayne, the Oscar-winning actor whose Podcrushed episode we’re dropping into your feed today. Oscar-winning actor Eddie Redmayne takes a break from gracing the stage (and the soundstage) to bring his characteristic charm and kindness to the pod. He recalls early memories from growing up as the artsy one in a family full of athletes, and talks about his early days as a young theater actor in London, in awe of the bright lights and buzzy energy.

Introducing: Senseless with Erika Mahoney
This week we’re introducing you to a powerful new podcast, Senseless with Erika Mahoney. Everything changed one ordinary Monday, when Erika Mahoney’s mom called to say there was an active shooter at the grocery store nearby. In a matter of seconds, ten people were killed – including Erika’s father. With the high-profile trial of the shooter as a backdrop, Erika speaks to survivors of mass shootings, community leaders, and others impacted by the tragedy in Boulder, on her deeply personal quest to move forward after the unthinkable. Mass shootings have become a daily, uniquely American tragedy. But what happens to those left behind afterward? Senseless is a raw, unfiltered journey through grief, trauma, resilience, and moving forward after your world shatters forever. We’re going to play you a clip from the first episode when Erika’s life gets turned upside down.
