Girl and The Gov, The Podcast

Democratic Attorneys General across the country are gearing up for what’s expected to be a busy and insane four years under Trump 2.0. Amongst those AGs is Massachusetts AG Andrea Campbell who joined us for a chat on what this prep looks like. She walked us through what AGs do, how they protect constituents, and what is top of mind for her office. We also chatted about the Reproductive Justice Unit she created within the AG’s office – a queen!

 Four political podcasters, four mics, and loads of election takeaways on this episode featuring our friends from the American Fever Dream Podcast, V Spehar (@undethedesknews) and Sami Sage (@betches_news). Low key, high key this episode could’ve been over 24 hours long, but we wrapped it up into a digestible first look at what happened this election, and what we’ve gleaned so far. It’s the first of many post mortems and rants, and a jumping off point for the work we’ll all have ahead.

**Editor’s Note: This interview was conducted well before the hurricane hit NC** We’re in the final stretch of this election season, and this is our very last interview before it – we’re doing a solo eppy next week, so don’t fret!! But to cap it off, we had to go with an EPIC one with the amazing Julie von Haefen, who is a state rep in North Carolina. We run through the state’s lay of the land politically and the momentum being built across the state by young people. It’s a state to watch and so is this episode on our YouTube :)

There are many avenues to flipping the House blue and one of the avenues includes a Republican held seat in rural Colorado – the 3rd Congressional District. And while its inflammatory current representative has moved districts, it’s still a battle to flip with Democrat Adam Frisch making a second swing at it. This episode chats on what is needed to make the district vote blue, the issues impacting rural voters, and the epic father-son road trip 2.0 that’s happening with Adam and his son.

How does the overturning of Roe impact those serving in our military and their families? We get into that question and answer with Congresswoman Mikie Sherrill who has focused legislatively on trying to protect and enhance access to reproductive care for those serving our country. Core to this conversation is a revelation that not only is the GOP anti-healthcare, but they also are anti-transparency. Outside of repro, we also chat about the 2024 election and what may be ahead for the Congresswoman as she considers a run for NJ governor next year.

We’re in the final stretch of election season and there’s a US Senate race you need to have on your radar – and it’s in a purple state, Maryland. The race is between County Executive Angela Alsobrooks and the state’s former Governor, Larry Hogan – and you guessed it, it’s a close on. So, we brought Angela on the show to chat about her campaign, what’s at stake, and what her vision is for that seat, which is where this episode comes into play.

Give me a V, give me an O, give me a T, give an E - what does that spell?! VOTE! Which is really the core message of this episode with none other than Congressman Maxwell Frost. Think of this as your pep talk or maybe even your meditation for the election, and then send this convo to a friend that needs a little more VOTE action in their life. It’s the final countdown, and this eppy will get you in the right spirit.

If you end up moving to Maryland after listening to this episode, we will not be surprised. The state’s Governor Wes Moore joined us to talk about where the state is going and what it’s doing – here’s the hint, it’s going up and it’s doing big things. Those big things include major economic growth and making communities safer, two pillars we dive into in this conversation. We also chat on MD’s must check out places and spaces, the Ravens, fantasy football, and so much more..

Skip the coffee for this episode because it’s radiating so much energy, you’ll be more electric after than a solar panel. In the first half we debrief the absolutely next level debate between Kamala Harris and former cheeto-in-chief. And in the second half we chat with a candidate whose seat is literally the reason the Dems have the majority in Michigan right now, State Rep. Jaime Churches. We get into what is on the line, what conversations are like with voters, and what opponents like hers are trying to throw at women candidates. Know a friend in Michigan? Send them this.
