Find Out is an honest, irreverent, and often hilarious discussion about America during Trump’s second term. We’re a team of left-wing content creators (who MAGAs would call radical left lunatics)—but we’re here to prove that we’re just normal dudes you can shoot the shit with. Each week we’ll laugh about the latest MAGA absurdities, while helping listeners separate the signal from the noise. Whether you’re pissed off, ready to fight, or feel like you’re about to completely disassociate, Find Out has something for you. No echo chambers. No b******t. Just real talk.

    Rep. Chellie Pingree Breaks Down the Maine ICE Killing

    Congresswoman Chellie Pingree (D-ME) joins Find Out to break down the ICE shooting in Biddeford — a botched raid that left the wrong man dead in front of his family, despite him working here legally. She lays out what her office knows about the investigation, the administration's stonewalling on basic details like body cameras, and how expanded ICE quotas are terrorizing Maine's immigrant communities and costing local economies. The conversation also covers hospital closures tied to GOP Medicaid cuts, the chaotic process to replace Graham Platner as Maine's Senate nominee against Susan Collins, and why even lifelong Republicans in her district are fed up. If you've been wondering how a "boring" state like Maine became a flashpoint this year, this episode lays it all out. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    ICE Just Killed Another Innocent Person in Maine — Senate Hopeful Dan Kleban Reacts

    Hours before this recording, another person shot and killed by ICE in Biddeford, Maine. Maine Beer Company founder and U.S. Senate candidate Dan Kleban was already booked to join Find Out today — so the conversation starts there instead. No ICE presence was requested by Maine officials, and Kleban isn't holding back on what he calls a "reign of terror." The crew breaks down the pattern of ICE shootings (bullets through side windows, "weaponized vehicle" excuses that don't add up), then Kleban lays out his pitch to unseat Susan Collins: a small-business record built on paying workers right, and a Democratic Party that needs more than anti-Trump anger to win.

    Brian Tyler Cohen on How Democrats Can Actually Win

    Brian Tyler Cohen returns to Find Out for a conversation built around his new book, How to Wield Power in a Post-Trump World, out July 14th. The crew breaks down why Democrats keep defaulting to process and "strongly worded letters" instead of delivering outcomes, and why Cohen thinks the party's era of conferring goodwill to bad-faith negotiators has to end. They dig into generational change in Democratic leadership, the case for Supreme Court expansion (including a revealing anecdote about Gavin Newsom coming around on the idea), and why accountability for Trump-era corruption — from insider trading to crypto grifts — can't take a backseat to a policy agenda. Cohen also talks about building the independent media ecosystem through his organization Chorus, why the left needs more voices rather than fewer, and what actually moved the needle in 2024.

    Why Graham Platner Needs to Drop Out

    After the sexual assault allegations made against Graham Platner, Tim & Luke discuss why he needs to drop out right away. After that, Tim Whitaker, co-founder of The New Evangelicals, joins the show to unpack a Fourth of July weekend Trump turned into a celebration of himself. We break down his speech, the right's meltdown over birthright citizenship (including Liz Wheeler's "communist children" claim), and Tim's own exit from Christian fundamentalism — why the loudest "biblical" voices in politics rarely quote Jesus. We also get into Trump's meme coin grift, which made him $636 million while everyday buyers lost nearly $4 billion, and close on why the left still can't fund a media ecosystem to match the right's.

    Amanda Nelson Returns for Supreme Court Week

    The Supreme Court just ruled 5-4 that the Constitution means what it says — and somehow that's still not the end of the story. Amanda Nelson (Amandasmildtakes) returns to the show to break down the birthright citizenship ruling, Kavanaugh's concurrence that may leave Congress room to chip away at it anyway, and the right's unhinged reactions from Matt Walsh to Stephen Miller. We also unpack the Court's campaign finance ruling blowing the RNC's fundraising edge even wider, the Democrats' messaging discipline problem, and revisit Bush v. Gore twenty-five years later. Plus, Amanda tells us about her new show launching on Find Out Media, Executive Dysfunction — five episodes on the biggest f**k-ups in American political history, and what they teach us about the mess we're in now.

    Ex-MAGA influencer explains why he abandoned Trump

    The crew is back after one of the riskiest bookings they’ve ever made — and it paid off.Tim, Rich, Luke, and Zak bring on NeverWoke, an ex-MAGA influencer who built his following inside MAGA and is now publicly taking it apart. He’s early in his deconstruction, but when he got pressed on the ugliest parts of his record, he owned it. After their conversation, the guys talk through what it means to platform someone like that, why they almost didn’t, and why they’re glad they did.If you’ve got a disaffected Trump voter in your life, this one might be the ammo you hand them.

    Is "socialism" still scaring voters away?

    Fresh off sitting down with legendary progressive communications strategist David Fenton, the crew digs into what his decades of experience reveal about the Democrats' messaging problem. Why do principled, smart politicians turn into hollow talking-point machines the second a camera turns on? The guys argue it's not a DSA takeover sweeping the party — it's an authenticity crisis. Voters don't necessarily want further left; they want people who clearly believe what's coming out of their mouths and are willing to fight, whether that's Mamdani in New York or Brad Lander getting arrested at an ICE facility. From there it's a wide-ranging conversation: why "socialism" became a dirty word despite everyone loving Social Security, Medicare, and the FDIC; where Bernie actually lost voters (hint: it wasn't the policy); and why running a Mamdani in Iowa would be political suicide. Plus, Luke recounts his live-stream debates with MAGA viewers — the guy whose wife voted Harris, the "traditional values" defense that falls apart on contact, and whether you can ever actually change a mind in real time. The episode wraps with the crew cooking up a "pick your fighter" live debate series where viewers choose which host to take on.

    Are democrats finally focused on winning?

    The fight over Trump's legacy is playing out everywhere this week — including in a reflecting pool full of hydrogen peroxide. On this episode of the Find Out Podcast, we break down the bizarre saga of the National Mall's "vandalized" reflecting pool, the no-bid contracts handed to a Trump donor with a felony record, and what this small scandal reveals about a much larger pattern of cronyism and superficiality. We also reflect on Trump's record itself — whether, after decades in public life, he's ever delivered anything of lasting good. Then we turn to the Middle East, examining the collapsing Iran deal, Netanyahu's outsized influence over American foreign policy, and reports that the administration may be quietly seeking a new Israeli government. We also explore the human cost of a green light to escalate, and what it means when U.S. backing becomes a blank check. In the back half, we dig into the midterms with a new Washington Post analysis showing a dramatic surge in Democratic turnout — including in deep-red districts — and make the case for why donating now matters far more than a check written the week before an election. We revisit the lessons of the 2008 wave, walk through a state-by-state Senate map, and confront the infighting threatening to undermine Democratic momentum before a single vote is cast. Plus, a spirited detour into Oasis versus Nickelback, the greatest guitarist of all time, and why some debates are better left unsettled.   Learn more about your ad choices.
