    The Progressive Playbook: Three Voices for Change

    This is our first-ever marathon episode, and it brings together three voices who are all grappling with the same core question: what does the Democratic Party need to do right now to actually win, govern, and deliver for working people? We sit down with Drake Rainwater, an emerging Substack writer who makes the case that Democratic candidates have to lean far more aggressively into progressive economic policies if they want to reconnect with voters who feel left behind. We’re also joined by Tabitha Isner, Vice Chair of the Alabama Democratic Party and a candidate for the Alabama State Senate, who breaks down the slate of Democrats running this cycle and talks candidly about how to confront and dismantle the long-running narrative that paints Democrats as “evil” in deep-red states. Rounding out the conversation is Dylan Blaha, congressional candidate for Illinois’s 13th District, who builds on many of the same themes but goes deeper into some of the most controversial fault lines in Democratic politics today, including campaign funding, AIPAC, and support for ICE.  Got a hot take?

    Daniel Tait: The Fight Against Energy Monopolies

    In this episode, I’m joined by Daniel Tait, Executive Director of Energy Alabama, for a look at why power bills feel out of control, and why it is so hard for the public to get answers. We break down how Alabama Power’s rates are adjusted through behind-the-scenes formulas instead of regular, public rate cases, and what it means that there hasn’t been a full formal rate case since the early 1980s. Daniel explains why Energy Alabama is fighting to open up fuel-cost proceedings that have been changed repeatedly for years without public hearings, and what’s at stake for everyday families when advocates are denied a seat at the table. We also dig into the structural drivers of high bills, including fixed charges and utility profit, and why Alabama ranks #1 in the nation for “energy burden.” From proposed protections against dangerous shut-offs during extreme heat and cold, to the barriers Alabama Power has put in front of rooftop solar and large-scale renewable projects, this conversation connects the dots between utility regulation, corporate incentives, public health, and the economic opportunities Alabama is leaving on the table.

    Senator Doug Jones: How Democrats Can Compete in Red States

    Former United States Senator and gubernatorial candidate Doug Jones joins me for a long-anticipated conversation about the future of Alabama politics. Last summer, Mallory Hagan and I talked about what it would take for Democrats to truly compete statewide, and a few months later, Doug Jones entered the governor’s race.  In our 30-minute conversation, we cover a lot of ground, from healthcare affordability and Medicaid expansion to education, accountability, and the importance of building a strong top of the ticket so Democrats down the ballot can compete. Doug reflects on his upbringing in the Jim Crow South, his time as U.S. Attorney, and why unity and participation are essential if Alabama is going to move forward. I also share why this moment reminds me of 2018, the last time Democrats had real energy and real options on the ballot, and why Doug Jones believes that same momentum is possible again. His message is clear: change only happens when we show up, work together, and give voters a real choice. Got a hot take? Think you’re not wrong about something? I want to hear it.
