    The Idiots in the Cupboard

    Joe Biden promised us a cabinet that looks like America, but will he give us a cabinet that works like America? This week, Anjali and Dane take a look at some of President Joe Biden's top cabinet members (most of which are leftovers from the Obama administration). From key influencers in our Middle Eastern occupations to a Department of Transportation headed by someone with...no transportation experience, what could go wrong?

    ACAB For Dummies

    Following the wake of George Flloyd's murder at the hands of a police officer, the world erupted into an impassioned series of protests demanding change and reform in every aspect of political life. From the criminal justice system to our schools, the Black Lives Matter movement is creating a call for political and social change that cannot be ignored.  On this episode, join Kim and I as we talk about our protesting experience and dissect some of the core conservative arguments against the Black Lives Matter Movement. And, of course, we talk about ACAB. So if you're wondering what ACAB is, why black-on-black crime is the most absurd counterargument to BLM, or how to be an ally in this situation, tune in to this episode. idiotsouppodcast.com

    The Gang Gets Arrested By Copmala: A Deep Dive Into Kamala Harris's History

    So you want to talk about Kamala Harris? Last week, in a historic decision, the Democratic Presidential nominee Joe Biden announced Senator Kamala Harris of California as his Vice Presidential pick. As the first black woman to be nominated on a major party ticket and the first Indian American to be nominated, Senator Harris's nomination is history in the making. But, the woman who dubs herself a "progressive prosecutor" has had an iffy past when it comes to criminal justice and reform. During her tenure as a District Attorney and Attorney General she has made some notable regressive decisions and policy changes that have come to haunt her during this election season. While the nomination has been controversial in some progressive circles, it has conversely been lauded by some progressive activists including Angela Davis. So who is Kamala Harris? Join Anjali, Dane, Eshaan, Vinny, and Benny as we dive into Kamala Harris's history. From her first day being bussed to public school to her recent policy endeavors in the senate: this is a podcast to discover who Kamala Harris is and what her nomination means for the future of the Democratic Party.  So you want to talk about Kamala Harris? This is the place. idiotsouppodcast.com

  6. Get With The Times (New York)

    Get With The Times (New York)

    To be (progressive) or not to be (progressive)... This is the plight of the Democratic Party. As they near the highly anticipated Iowa Caucuses, the nation is watching to see which direction the Democrats will go in: will they follow a Progressive Sanders/Warren path or will they play it safe with moderates like Klobuchar and Biden? The New York Times didn't make the decision any easier when they released their formal endorsement in favor of two candidates: Senators Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar. In refusing to decide between progressive and moderate, the outlet has made it even clearer that the Americans have to decide this for themselves. And apparently they also have to decide if a woman can even be president. On the CNN debate stage Sen. Warren accused Sen. Sanders of telling her a woman can't be president, but did he really? Join Danielle and Kaylene as they dissect all that and more on this episode of Idiot Soup.

    We Refuse to Make Iran Puns

    Tensions between Iran and the United States have been escalating since the rifts over the Iran Nuclear Deal, all culminating on January 3, 2020, when the US carried out a lethal airstrike assassinating Qasem Soleimani in an airport Iraq. As Congress attempts to block any further military action in Iran, Danielle and Darren take a look at the history of the US's involvement in the Middle East and how this affect the ongoing crisis.  Oh and also, there's some cool talk about the impeachment in there. What's going on? Absolutely nothing, and the Senate's going to see to that, but we're still going to talk about it (and Mitch.)

  8. Too Cold for Global Warming

    Too Cold for Global Warming

    This week President Trump chastised teenage activist Greta Thunberg for not "chilling out" and "watching a movie." Chilling out, it seems, is a great alternative for Global Warming. Unfortunately, there's not a lot of legislation helping out with that. Since March, the topic of climate change has consistently been at the front of the conversation between presidential candidates; from nuclear power to frontline communities, everyone has something to say. Join Danielle and Jon as we tackle arguments against Global Warming and crack a lot of jokes.
