Did Tony Hinchcliffe Just Save Democracy?

What happens when comedy crosses paths with political upheaval? We unpack how Tony Hinchcliffe's controversial set at Madison Square Garden, as featured on the Kill Tony podcast, unexpectedly resonated with Puerto Rican communities, potentially igniting a political awakening. Through humor and roasts, we probe the delicate balance between being funny and being offensive, especially in the context of Puerto Rico's sociopolitical issues. As fans of comedy, we appreciate the skill of making light of serious matters but recognize the need for context and sensitivity, especially when roasting touches on the lived experiences of marginalized communities.

Decoding Immigration with Attorney Liz Cannon

The "Immigration issue" may be the key thing that determines all the control of power next November in America. And ALEXA going all MAGA loco in millions of households isn't helping either. Obviously we need to SLAP some light on how we can help navigate this often misunderstood and vital issue. So we chose to get someone in who could help us understand it like we were musicians who didnt know what we were talking about. Enter our delightful interview today, Liz Cannon, a seasoned immigration attorney who graces our show with her great takes on why most of our leaders don't actually want to help solve this issue and instead how WE can help each other fix this. You're going to want to listen in as Liz dissects the silliness of US immigration law, clearing up misconceptions about undocumented immigrants, and she helps explain to us what the F a 601A waiver process is. :) I mean...do you know the difference between those who enter the US with a visa and those who cross the border without documentation? How many people overstay their visas vs cross at the borders? With Liz's guidance, we limp through this complex terrain together, shedding light on the impact of changing immigration laws under different administrations and she also touches on the deeper, class-based issues contributing to the current immigration predicament and exposing how these factors play into the exploitation of immigrants. We round off with Liz by discussing the power of individual advocacy. Reminding ourselves that even a simple phone call can influence immigration policy. Liz generously shares resources for listeners interested in supporting immigration reform. We also debut our new segment the "Wish Factor (AKA I wish a MF would!)", where we imagine dealing with difficult situations, that you kinda wish would happen. We leave you with another humorous TOURROR STORY from the road (Halloween edition) to lighten the mood. So jump in with us as we try and SLAP some sense into the ridiculous and insanely important issue of immigration today. and as Liz said on our episode, sometimes, calling your representatives and demand to be heard on action to help our broken immigration system. FIND AND CONTACT YOUR ELECTED OFFICIALS HERE https://www.usa.gov/elected-officials and if you know who your representative is but you are unable to contact them using their contact form, the Clerk of the House maintains addresses and phone numbers of all House members and Committees, or you may call (202) 224-3121 for the U.S. House switchboard operator. and here are some recommended resources how you can also help You can donate to the National Immigrant Justice Center You can make a secure onl Support the show AMAZON Compassion Kind PATREON SLAP the Power is written and produced by Rick Barrio Dill (@rickbarriodill) and Aja Nikiya (@compassioncurator).
