It’s that time again! Our CA Prop Guide is here! It covers all seven state-wide props with our usual mix of panache and…mild irritation. Feel free to share this guide far and wide because, look, nobody has time to research all the motherf*ing props this state throws at us.
We've put together a handy cheat sheet for the California propositions on the ballot this November so you can earn that "I Voted" sticker!
A standalone version of the Jill Stein interview and rally segment from last week's podcast.
A list of websites that can help you identify downticket races to get involved in.
Green party candidate for president Jill Stein. Democrats believe she’s the Yoko Ono of the presidential race. Donald Trump believes she’s...yet another faceless disgusting woman who probably has periods. Both major parties would like you to think she’s some sort of dreadlock-y hippie that isn’t worth your time. If corporate shills and/or flat out insane people aren’t your cup of tea, join us as we meet our first of the two major third party candidates and dive a little deeper into this thing called democracy!
We’re back for a mid-week podcast because we couldn’t record over the long weekend but WE HAVE THINGS TO SAY. And those things are: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are failures, and Hillary Clinton ‘24 isn’t the solution. So if you’re down for 40 minutes of that (and who isn’t, really?) then this episode is a real banger.
Amanda Litman (@amandalitman) from Run For Something joins us to talk about elections, and how YOU can become a candidate. Plus, we’ll dig back into inflation and tell you specifically why Joe Manchin needs to get a freaking grip. We’ve got all that, plus an in-depth look at how Jimmy Carter’s sweaters caused Kevin McCarthy to be an asshole. Don’t miss it!
Due to some post-Lila birthday party fatigue, we’ve got a totally different podcast for you this week! As promised on twitter, we deliver a lengthy review of Mayor Pete (a review of both the film, and the human). Lila digs into why he’s not such a wildly “different” candidate after all, and Brent plays armchair psychiatrist to explain his lack of human emotion. Check it out!
Well friends, it was DEFINITELY infrastructure week, but surprise…still no bills to show for it. However, what we do have to show for it is perhaps even more exciting: a cohesive Congressional Progressive Caucus that has finally realized that it has some power. We’ll take a deep dive into what happened this week, plus an overview of how we got here. It’s one you won’t want to miss!
We’re back after a brief vacation! And against all odds, it’s still infrastructure season! We may now have either a bipartisan deal, a $3.5T deal through reconciliation, or both or neither. We’re betting on…neither. Plus we’ve got hot takes on the Olympics, Covid-19, and Sarah Palin’s fool’s errand of a senate run. Don’t miss it!
