For The Wi‪n‬ The Raben Group

On the latest episode of For The Win, Yochi, Abby, and Elliot discuss the growing political debate over America’s student loan debt crisis, whether it should matter if someone went to an expensive private university or a cheaper public one, and how a system created to help students afford college has instead left millions of graduates saddled with debts they can’t afford to pay back.    

In the latest episode of For The Win, Elliot and Yochi speak with Kathleen Sebelius, the former secretary of Health and Human Services during the Obama administration, about what she learned from fighting the H1N1 pandemic, what the Trump administration got wrong about its COVID-19 response (hint: a lot), the importance of leveling with the American public about the new vaccines, and how to talk to anti-maskers and anti-vaxxers without losing your cool. There’s also some good political trivia!

In the latest episode of For The Win, Elliot and guest host Audrey López speak with Charles Kamasaki, author of "Immigration Reform: The Corpse That Will Not Die," about reforming immigration after the Trump years — an issue that is even more pressing after the results in the Georgia U.S. Senate runoff election on January 5.

In the latest episode of For The Win Abby, Yochi and Elliot speak with System Check podcast hosts Melissa Harris-Perry & Dorian Warren about the coup attempt at the Capitol, the country’s legacy of institutionalized racism and white supremacist violence, and how to move America forward — with or without Republicans.

In the latest episode of For The Win, Elliot Williams spoke with Margaret Huang, CEO of the Southern Poverty Law Center, about whether there’s a correlation between Trump’s presidency and the rise in hate crimes, whether to expect political violence around the Georgia Senate special election, and why kids are much more at risk of being exposed to all types of hate. 

In the latest episode of For the Win, Abby & guest host Eduardo Soto spoke with Luis Davila, former deputy director and general counsel for the Puerto Rico Federal Affairs Administration, about D.C. & Puerto Rico Statehood, why it would be a long process, why Democrats believe it would help them gain seats, and how economic factors have impacted the vote.
