The Trump administration is actively working to erase the existence of trans people through policy and legislation. But no law can erase the 1.6 million trans people living in America, nor the reality of their lives and experiences. These are real people facing real consequences—impacting their rights, safety, and livelihoods. This week, Adam sits down with his friends and fellow comedians Dylan McKeever, River Butcher, and Sammy Mowrey, who all happen to be trans, to talk about what it’s like to navigate this moment in America as a trans person.

The concept of privacy has drastically eroded over the past 30 years. The internet made our personal data more accessible than ever, but the most alarming development yet? Even your own face is no longer private. This week, Adam sits down with Kashmir Hill, New York Times reporter and author of Your Face Belongs to Us: A Tale of AI, a Secretive Startup, and the End of Privacy, to discuss how companies are exploiting our most personal information—including our very identities—for profit, and what that means for the future of privacy. Find Kashmir’s book at http://www.factuallypod.com/books.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are actively trying to burn down the federal government. Federal workers are being fired en masse, with no regard for their roles or the devastating impact their removal will have on everyday Americans. As the country’s largest employer, the federal government’s gutting won’t just affect those losing their jobs—it will ripple outward, impacting millions of families and, ultimately, all Americans. Today, Adam is joined by Max Stier, CEO and president of the Partnership for Public Service, to break down who has been affected, the extent of the damage, and what it would take to rebuild the ruins of our federal government.

Last time we faced a Trump administration, people flooded the streets in protest. But this time feels different. Even as we watch our government being systematically dismantled, the response seems muted. Are we just exhausted? Or is something else at play? And more importantly—does protest still work, or is there a more effective way to protect our future from a newly entrenched autocracy? This week, Adam speaks with friend of the show Dr. Dana Fisher about what we actually need to be doing. Find Dana’s book at http://www.factuallypod.com/books and find Dana here:

The tech oligarchs who once pulled the strings from behind the scenes are now running the show right out in the open. Professional idiot Elon Musk is taking a sledgehammer to the federal government, and Silicon Valley’s sleaziest slimeballs are warming themselves in Trump’s fetid lap. Obviously, this is a disaster. To break down just how bad it is—and what it means for the future of our already struggling country—Adam sits down with friend of the show Ed Zitron, journalist and sharp-tongued tech critic behind betteroffline.com and wheresyoured.at

Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg are obsessed with proving they’re “real” men. That’s an issue with these two dangerous dorks—but more importantly, it reflects a larger crisis that’s impacting men across the country.
