- Society & Culture
We’re 10 episodes old, send Pokémon cards! Dolly and Joey discuss #BlackOutTuesday, the power of K-Pop fans, and our experiences of attending protests from East to West Coast. Later, journalist Sana Saeed joins us to talk about her AJ+ show, Pop Americana, and why American media covers movements like the Arab Spring and Hong Kong’s protests so differently from movements like #BlackLivesMatter at home. Also: more on talking to our families, defunding the police, Aladdin, bots, Dolly Parton, and which governments get called “regimes.”
