Dakota Hall from Alliance For Youth Action)

Dakota Hall, Executive Director of Alliance for Youth Action, joins us to talk about the youth vote, the State of the Union address, and to inform us (much to our horror) that children born in the year of our lord 2010 are almost teenagers. So…that’s a lot to think about, friends. A LOT TO THINK ABOUT. It’s a great episode and we think you’re really going to love it!

1/19/22 - Veep Is Supposed To Be A Parody

We’re back for a mid-week podcast because we couldn’t record over the long weekend but WE HAVE THINGS TO SAY.

So if you’re down for 40 minutes of that (and who isn’t, really?) then this episode is a real banger.

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!

What a blast we had chatting with healthcare activist and Executive Director of Health Care Voter, Laura Packard!

It’s a fun and substantive conversation, so don’t miss it!

What a blast we had with our amazing guest, Tatenda Musapatike! She’s so smart and funny that we could have talked politics with her for 2 hours. So…that’s exactly what we did! Don’t worry, there’s some Real Housewives talk to break it all up. Check it out, we promise you it’s a fun one!
