    Primary Reasons for Hope

    07/30/2026 | 30 mins.
    Today as we inch ever closer to the midterms, our field is becoming clearer as primaries enter the final stretch around the country. We have the wind at our backs but are being met with Trump’s massive voter disenfranchisement campaign, so we can’t get comfy for a second. We talk about that, some drama within the DNC, how you can help us win the House AND the Senate, and also… where’s Mitch???

    Fair Elections with Rebekah Caruthers

    07/28/2026 | 22 mins.
    With less than 100 days until the midterms, the Trump regime is ramping up their attack on voting rights with continued false claims of fraud, unconstitutional executive orders, and threats to send law enforcement to polling places. So we are glad to be having this important and timely conversation about how we can fight back against these suppression tactics and make sure that all Americans have access to their ballot.
    Rebekah Caruthers is President & CEO at Fair Elections Center, a national voting rights organization that’s work is centered around making sure that elections are fair, registration is accessible and all Americans can cast their vote.

    Presence to Power with Rashad Robinson

    07/22/2026 | 31 mins.
    We are really excited for you all to hear this great conversation about how we can all build power and yes, win these existential fights. For more than two decades, Rashad Robinson’s strategic campaigns, media expertise and movement leadership have played a critical role in winning real change for real people.
    Rashad led Color Of Change for nearly fourteen years, transforming it from a start-up into a national force for racial justice and Black political power. Prior to that, he led programs and advocacy at GLAAD during a period of major cultural and political progress for LGBT people. His work and insights are regularly featured across broadcast, print and social media and he has a new book out called: “From Presence to Power - How to Take On the Fights That Matter and WIN.”

    ICE, Iran and Explosive Diarrhea

    07/16/2026 | 35 mins.
    Today we talk about the new wave of ICE atrocities on our streets, the “falling down the stairs” approach to foreign policy that has led us back into war with Iran, and Todd Blanche. We also discuss the fate of Lindsey Graham, Mitch McConnell, and what it all means to the Senate map, and of course, explosive diarrhea.
