April 30, 2020Why Are Millennials Leaving the Left? This Author Has Answers.
Why did some millennials vote for President.Barack Obama in 2012 and President Donald Trump in 2016? Jonathan Jakubowski, author of "Bellwether Blues: A Conservative Awakening of the Millennial Soul," joins The Daily Signal Podcast to discuss.
"There’s a lot of reasons that motivated these millennials to change their votes over the course of time," says Jakubowski. "It didn’t happen in one single event. It didn’t happen because of one podcast or one show or one friend. It was conversations. It was things that they read. It was life events that ultimately culminated in a deep change."

April 20, 2020 'There's Beauty in the Midst of Ashes,’ Says Pastor on National COVID-19 Recovery Panel
Reopening America’s economy is going to take leadership and insight from every sphere of society, including the faith community.

The Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference and a member of the National Coronavirus Recovery Commission, joins The Daily Signal Podcast to talk about what a pastor brings to the panel and when we can expect churches and businesses to open their doors again.

As America and the rest of the world face the challenges and fears created by COVID-19, Rodriguez says, it might be helpful to view this time as a "reset" or opportunity to refocus our priorities to what truly matters.

“Just like when we reset our iPhones, it goes back to its default settings,” Rodriguez says. “What if this is a hard reset, and we go back to our default settings of faith and family, of the true essential elements in our lives, of the things that really matter?”
