• Is Putin Running the Show? - A conversation with international expert Jon Finer

  While international relationships are essential in a changing, increasingly dangerous world, under the Trump Administration America is doing major damage to both our safety and security by eroding trust with our allies being mercurial and untrustworthy to them while being generous and cozy with our “enemies". Our president clearly sees the world as a zero sum game of how things serve him, and while that particular kind of selfishness might work in the business world, when the only goal is financial success, it doesn’t work in geopolitics if you are creating partners to make the world safer and more secure. We are joined today by Jon Finer, Biden’s former Deputy National Security advisor, to let us know where the international experts feel America sits right now on the international stage.  As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.

• WTF is HAPPENING America?!

  Things are not right. I’m doing my pod from the road today because something wasn’t right. In my particular case it was my son’s appendix, but the wrongness of what’s going on isn’t limited to my immediate family. It’s all around us. We’re drowning in it. So, this pod is about what’s going on this week. What we should be paying attention to. How we know when things aren’t right, and just like we just did with my son, how we take the information we’re given and act if things need to change. Let me know what you think about this episode. If people like this kind of news breakdown, I’ll do more of these episodes…just from home this time.  As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.

• Trump wants you Dumb & Mean: A Conversation with Ben Sheehan

  Don’t feel bad if you don’t know how the government works. It’s by design. Today we talk to the Host of PBS’s Civics Made Easy about the importance of offering Americans the kind of knowledge we should have but don’t, on a network that the government should fund, but won’t. Ben wants us to, “Get caught up together” and Trump wants us as stupid as possible. As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.

• I Feel That Way Too!: A Conversation with Michelle MiJung Kim

  Things are getting so bad in America that many people are checking out, but we can’t keep pretending things are normal when we know they aren’t. We must collectively wake up to what’s happening, to how we got here, to the ugly and the scary that we’ve allowed to flourish to find the courage to stand against it. That while hope is important, we must also acknowledge change is not coming if we don’t stand up and work for it. People are not being rewarded for standing on the right side of history right now. There’s a real reason to be afraid of speaking out, but we have to do it anyway, and we have to do it even if we’re afraid. In fact, as our guest Michelle MiJung Kim says, “We can only truly practice courage when we are afraid”.

• America’s $200 Billion Dollar Mistake: A Conversation with Garrett Graff

  We can’t afford pediatric cancer research, healthcare for seniors, or testing to make sure our water is clean, but we have $200 billion dollars to spend on masked, secret police to terrorize us on our streets? Really? This isn’t about safety, it’s about control, and it should deeply concern anyone who believes in human rights, due process and American freedom. Not to mention anyone who cares about the budget. Join me and award winning historian and journalist, Garrett Graff, as we discuss why creating such a polarized, partisan, and violent law enforcement group is such a detriment to American society.
