Ready for A Night In? Join Tabby and Kate as they take a break from discussing history and instead engage in a discourse about the difficulties of participating in local politics. A key focus of the episode is the importance of voting at the community level while acknowledging some of the barriers voters face while trying to navigate local politics. 

Episode Guide:

00:00-04:59 Commentary on what is happening. 

05:00 We get to the point of the show. Voting gives you the ability to enact change, but turnout for local elections is small. Why is this? What can we do to change this issue? 

08:00 Omari Hardy stands up for the people of Lake Worth 

10:00 Killer Mike says vote out politicians you don't like, but this can be very difficult. Many local politicians run unopposed. This is why it is important to always pay attention and when your window of opportunity arises, take it! 

13:00 How do you know if judges are working in the interest of the community? In PBC the bar association holds a judicial review that evaluates the performance of judges. 

17:00 Local Newspapers do a lot of heavy lifting for you when you are trying to navigate your local politics. 

20:00 Don't forget: Mayors and County Execs work a lot with local police (appoint police chiefs; negotiate police unions; enact police review boards) 

22:00 State Attorney are elected into office. Are they holding police and city officials to account?

Ready for A Night In? Grab a beverage and join Tabby and Kate as they talk about current and historical power consolidation.  

00:20 A drink as a warm up

01:10 We have noticed a trend… the people in power are consolidating power 

02:20 Freedom of speech is at risk all over the world 

03:15 The Trump Administration does not like the freedom of information act 

03:55 Ways leaders consolidate power: loyal base of follower, payment and favors to followers, limit freedom of speech and silence those who oppose you…

05:30 One of our favorite events in history, the consolidation of power, the Soviet way

07:00 Western democracy, an intellectual contagion… Thanks Napoleon

11:00 The monarchy collapses and the Duma declares a provisional government, which unfortunately was committed to a vastly unpopular war… guess its time for a revolution! 

13:00 Stalin builds a web on influence throughout Eastern Europe and slowly replaces politicians in those counties with soviet leaders and before anyone knows it, BAM communism. 

14:00 So you should be afraid of Russia. Why? Misinformation campaigns.

Ready for A Night In? Join Tabby and Kate as they talk about social media activism and the ways it is both effective and ineffective at bringing about change. 

01:10 How dumb was the news last week? Pretty dumb…

02:04 Kim Kardashian may have missed the point this time with her instagram activism…

03:00 Who, After all, speaks today of the annihilation of the Armenians? Who said it? Why?

10:00 So what is the next step with social media activism?
