• What if we Tried Something Different?: A Conversation with Joanna Johnson

  Today’s guest Joanna Johnson, internet sensation and brilliant teacher otherwise known as Unlearn16, reminds us that capitalism isn’t our natural state. We pretend this economic system failing us is out of our hands, but we’re the one’s who built it. It’s man made. We can change the game because we made the game, and it’s possible the fascism we’re seeing is simply the result of end stage capitalism. We’re at a tipping point, and the time might be coming to flip the board. What if we weren’t afraid of change? What if we built something new? What if things really could get better? But you have to understand where you came from to know where you’re going, so that’s what we’re going to focus on today.

• The Corruption is Endless. A Conversation with Robert Reich

  As today’s guest, Robert Reich, former US Secretary of Labor, wrote in his substack “Brace yourselves. The economy is heading into very bad weather.” That while prices and unemployment are going up. Everything else is going down. This is, of course, the polar opposite of what President Trump campaigned on, and exactly we, the president’s opposition said he would do. If anything good is going to emerge from this nightmare, it’s going to take the majority of us uniting to collectively demand it. That we can’t just be AGAINST this hideous, lawless, authoritarian version of America, where our President is a corrupt grifter surrounded by other grifters, we have to be FOR something better. That perhaps the silver lining of this horror will be the coalitions being built to fight the regime finding common ground on which to build something that finally works for all of us.  As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.

• It’s OK to Feel Scared: A Conversation with Jocelyn Benson

  It’s ok to feel scared right now. To be angry and frustrated and not know what to do. It’s fine to have those feelings, but as Michigan Secretary of State, and leading candidate for Governor, Jocelyn Benson asks, what do we do next? How do we stand up for what’s right when the stakes are high? How do we change the world not let the world change us? We talk today about finding purpose in rage, in the importance of building the bravery muscle, and to move forward even when we’re scared. History shows us when Americans fight, when we organize, when we don’t back down, we win. We can’t forget that now. Now, we move forward.

• Flip the Table. A Conversation with Alencia Johnson

  This administration is unhinged - a government ignoring the constitution, defying the courts, literally disappearing people off the streets? Every day they seem more brazen, more illiberal, more unlawful, and yet, when we see the tide turning on people like Pete Hegseth or the hesitation to just blindly invoke the insurrection act, we see that public pressure still works. So, today, instead of talking about the news, or having a conversation with one of the fabulous organizations working to save us - we’re going to talk about saving ourselves. Join me and award-winning thought leader and best selling author Alencia Johnson as we discuss the her new book: Flip the Tables: The Everyday Disruptor’s Guide to Finding Courage and Making Change because, God knows, that’s what we need to do now.

• Enemies: Both Foreign & Domestic. A Conversation with Janessa Goldbeck

  Will the American president use the American military on the American people? The fact that’s even in question indicates how far down the road towards autocracy this country has gone. Does that mean we’re helpless? Is there nothing we can do? What about the military itself? Will it, or can it, do anything? Join me and Janessa Goldbeck, CEO of VetVoice Foundation, as we discuss where we are with the American military, and what comes next.
