  • COVID - Still...

    More than a year and a half into a global pandemic where we know how to mitigate the spread and we’re still debating things like masks and vaccines. Kim and Dan kick off season 2 by asking, “Why the hell are still in this situation?!” And of course, they solve the world’s problems.

  • No There Isn't an Ally Merit Badge

    Allyship doesn’t come with a badge so people know “you’re a good person.”

    “Allies, thanks so much for your support – but stop expecting us to thank you anytime you do anything.”

    Allyship is work. It’s proving everyday that you’re here to help others. It’s not about getting a thank you or a pat on the back.

    Kim and Dan unpack this idea and what it means for White Americans who want to show People of Color and other marginalized people that they’re allies. Without being douchey.

  • Church in My America

    This episode started as a personal conversation with Dan exploring how church is failing so many Christians. From White churches ignoring social justice to Evangelicals lining up to support a mysoginist, philandering, lying, cheating, egotistical business hack (let’s not hold back) who embodies everything Jesus is not, Dan was feeling pretty abandoned. So in this episode, Dan and Kim unpack what church in our America looks like today and how we can do better.

    Note: This is obviously through the lens of Dan’s midwestern, cisgender, hetero non-denominational Christian worldview. There are many flavors of Faith.

  • The 7-Point Trump Plan

    There’s a “plan” going around CPAC to reinstate the former 45th President. It’s … wild. In this episode, Kim and Dan discuss the finer points of this plan, if it’s even possible and why the fact that it exists is dangerous.

  • Juneteenth: The Push for a National, Inclusive Celebration of Freedom

    Juanta Griffin has called Oak Park, Illinois home since she was 4 years old, and has been serving our community as an organizer, mentor, and educator ever since. She has a long standing commitment to racial equity and justice -- she created a Black History Program for a local Oak Park daycare when she was just fifteen years old. She also helped usher in Juneteenth as a community-supported holiday in her town. On this episode she talks with Dan about the history of Juneteenth, how all Americans can (and should) celebrate it and more.
