    Mazin Sidahmed: Building the Future of News From the Community Up

    In this episode, I’m joined by Mazin Sidahmed, co-executive director of Documented, an independent, nonprofit newsroom reporting with and for immigrant communities in New York City. Documented isn’t just covering immigration as a political issue. They’re producing original, responsive reporting and actionable resource guides in English, Spanish, Chinese, and Haitian Kreyòl to ensure critical information reaches people in the languages they actually speak. Their community-driven model means they don’t simply report on immigrant communities — they report with them. Whether it’s WeChat, Signal, Nextdoor, or Facebook, Documented meets people where they are, delivering news and resources that help immigrants not just stay informed, but thrive. Mazin brings a global and deeply experienced perspective to this work. He previously worked at The Guardian US during the 2016 election, covering surveillance, criminal justice, and the rise in hate crimes. He later joined the award-winning Guardian Mobile Innovation Lab, helping develop mobile-first storytelling formats. He began his career at The Daily Star in Beirut, reporting on the Syrian refugee crisis, weapons transfers to Lebanon, and migrant domestic workers. After moving to the U.S., he also contributed to Politico New York, covering real estate, public housing, and city politics. This conversation explores immigration, media trust, and the future of journalism and what it looks like when news is built to serve the people most impacted by the story. Got a hot take?

    Suzanne Lambert: Kristi Noem is MAGA’s Favorite Drag Queen

    On this episode, I sit down with Suzanne Lambert for a conversation about comedy, politics, pop culture, and where the lines actually fall between them. We unpack how political correctness shapes modern comedy, the pressure on public figures to speak out during this moment of unrest in America, how to find balance amid nonstop news cycles, beauty standards in MAGA world, and why certain political figures seem desperate to be seen as “cool.” A special thanks to Josh Sorbe for the special video clip and episode title :) Buy Tickets to Suzanne's Show on Feb. 10: Buy Tickets Here Listen to Suzanne's Podcast "Mean But True": Listen Here Got a hot take?

    The FBI Raid on Georgia’s 2020 Election Records with State Sen. Josh McLaurin

    In this episode, we break down the FBI’s seizure of original 2020 ballots and records from Fulton County’s election center in Georgia, why local officials call it an alarming escalation, and how it connects to Donald Trump’s long-running effort to relitigate his 2020 loss, starting with the “find the votes” call to Brad Raffensperger. We also dig into what this spectacle could mean for voter trust, turnout, and the misinformation environment heading into the midterms. We sat down with Georgia State Senator and lieutenant governor candidate Josh McLaurin to unpack how it all fits together. A former law school roommate of JD Vance, McLaurin points to messages he released years ago as proof that this moment is not about law and order or election security, but about the pursuit of perceived power.

    The Progressive Playbook: Three Voices for Change

    This is our first-ever marathon episode, and it brings together three voices who are all grappling with the same core question: what does the Democratic Party need to do right now to actually win, govern, and deliver for working people? We sit down with Drake Rainwater, an emerging Substack writer who makes the case that Democratic candidates have to lean far more aggressively into progressive economic policies if they want to reconnect with voters who feel left behind. We’re also joined by Tabitha Isner, Vice Chair of the Alabama Democratic Party and a candidate for the Alabama State Senate, who breaks down the slate of Democrats running this cycle and talks candidly about how to confront and dismantle the long-running narrative that paints Democrats as “evil” in deep-red states. Rounding out the conversation is Dylan Blaha, congressional candidate for Illinois’s 13th District, who builds on many of the same themes but goes deeper into some of the most controversial fault lines in Democratic politics today, including campaign funding, AIPAC, and support for ICE.  Got a hot take?

    Daniel Tait: The Fight Against Energy Monopolies

    In this episode, I’m joined by Daniel Tait, Executive Director of Energy Alabama, for a look at why power bills feel out of control, and why it is so hard for the public to get answers. We break down how Alabama Power’s rates are adjusted through behind-the-scenes formulas instead of regular, public rate cases, and what it means that there hasn’t been a full formal rate case since the early 1980s. Daniel explains why Energy Alabama is fighting to open up fuel-cost proceedings that have been changed repeatedly for years without public hearings, and what’s at stake for everyday families when advocates are denied a seat at the table. We also dig into the structural drivers of high bills, including fixed charges and utility profit, and why Alabama ranks #1 in the nation for “energy burden.” From proposed protections against dangerous shut-offs during extreme heat and cold, to the barriers Alabama Power has put in front of rooftop solar and large-scale renewable projects, this conversation connects the dots between utility regulation, corporate incentives, public health, and the economic opportunities Alabama is leaving on the table.

    Senator Doug Jones: How Democrats Can Compete in Red States

    Former United States Senator and gubernatorial candidate Doug Jones joins me for a long-anticipated conversation about the future of Alabama politics. Last summer, Mallory Hagan and I talked about what it would take for Democrats to truly compete statewide, and a few months later, Doug Jones entered the governor’s race.  In our 30-minute conversation, we cover a lot of ground, from healthcare affordability and Medicaid expansion to education, accountability, and the importance of building a strong top of the ticket so Democrats down the ballot can compete. Doug reflects on his upbringing in the Jim Crow South, his time as U.S. Attorney, and why unity and participation are essential if Alabama is going to move forward. I also share why this moment reminds me of 2018, the last time Democrats had real energy and real options on the ballot, and why Doug Jones believes that same momentum is possible again. His message is clear: change only happens when we show up, work together, and give voters a real choice. Got a hot take? Think you’re not wrong about something? I want to hear it.

    Corbin Trent: America’s Undoing and the Fight to Build It Back

    Corbin Trent joins the show to examine why millions of Americans feel abandoned by an economy leaders insist is working. Growing up in Northeast Tennessee and later working at the highest levels of progressive politics with Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Corbin brings a rare inside-and-outside perspective on how communities were hollowed out and why political promises keep falling short. We talk healthcare affordability, industrial policy, Trump’s appeal in forgotten towns, and what Democrats must get right in the 2026 midterms to rebuild trust and deliver real, material change.
