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 hope you had your Margarita and Kickboxing class, because this podcast is epic. First, Gaby Goldstein (@gaby_goldstein) of Sister District joins us to chat about the mid-terms and the importance of down-ballot races. Plus, we’ll give you all the lowlights of the 2 hour Biden presser. Toplines are: everything is going better than anyone could have expected, so that’s great to hear! Plus we’ve got stories about monkey queens and human litter boxes, because…of course we do. Don’t miss it!
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.
We took some time off for the holidays and to get Covid, but now we’re BACK for year 3 of 2020. And to help us celebrate our return, we have a very special guest, Carissa Byrne Hessick (@cbhessick), law professor at University of North Carolina. We’ll chat plea bargains, January 6th, and Elizabeth Holmes. Then, Lila and Brent take on the problem(s) with the administration’s covid response, and the insanity of making teacher’s unions the bad guys. Don’t miss this supersized episode!
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!
SINKHOLES ARE BACK! That’s right, we’ve got all the important sinkhole coverage, plus other essential stories such as Emus being arrested and humans being swallowed by humpback whales. But don’t worry, we’ve also got the hard news you crave, such as the big takeaways from the G-7. Takeaway #1 - the queen cutting an ugly sheetcake with a ceremonial sword just to be quirky. Don’t miss it!
This week on BTL…Brian Kemp and Georgia do what Brian Kemp and Georgia do: restrict voting. Plus, Biden had his first press conference this week and didn’t call anyone a lying dog-faced pony soldier, so all-in-all it was a real win. We’ll discuss all the big stories, plus the Amazon union vote, the potential for an actual infrastructure week, and an in-depth look at the #SuezCanal.
