  • BONUS: Ordinary Equality — Hanging On to a Future

    Well, here we are. We're on the other side of what we've been talking about for years. Roe v. Wade has been struck down, and for the first time in our lifetime, abortion is no longer protected.

    In our first episode, Kate and Jamia talk to folks who've been living, and working, and surviving, in a state where abortion access has been under fire for years, even before Roe fell -- Kentucky.

      • Our New Favorite Word

        Ravi and Jason review listener responses from last week's challenge: What term should the Left use in response to the Right's weaponization of the word "woke"? They just might have struck gold with their pick. Plus, they reflect on the January 6 hearings so far. What role do they really serve, and how brave is Liz Cheney, really? The second half of the episode features an interview with the unique Democratic governor of Colorado, Jared Polis. He's sometimes called the most libertarian governor in America. How does that mesh with the Democratic party, and what can the party learn from his approach?

      • Bonus: Introducing...I Was Never There

        Introducing Wonder Media Network’s first true crime show, I Was Never There. Thirty-four years ago, Marsha “Mudd” Ferber vanished without a trace from Morgantown, WV. Mother-daughter duo Karen and Jamie Zelermyer are going back to the land to figure out what the hell happened. Named a 2022 Tribeca Film Festival official selection for audio storytelling, I Was Never There is as much true crime show as it is an ode to Appalachian countercultural movements of the 1970s and 1980s. Listen wherever you get your podcasts.
