In our second trip to see what's fermenting in the still, Maggie, Drew, and Gabe take a look at how the 2022 Midterm elections are shaping up. With around a year to go, we're starting to see the Republican and Democratic strategies emerge. Theme by Adeem the Artist (@adeemtheartist)

Time to revisit the redistricting discussion! States have begun to introduce their preliminary maps, and unsurprisingly, many of them do not bode well for the future. Join Gabe and Maggie as they break down the latest and why we should go to non-partisan commissions to draw district maps. Theme by Adeem the Artist (@adeemtheartist)

Maggie is back in the studio this week and we get back to our old ways of poorly explaining hot-button issues. This time, we discuss gentrification and some of the ways we can end the displacement and upheaval it brings with it. Theme by Adeem the Artist (@adeemtheartist)

Gabe is all alone this week, so we decided to take a look at the foundation of American foreign policy and how it helped create the Haitian refugee crisis we're currently facing. Theme by Adeem the Artist (@adeemtheartist)

Gabe turns the keys of the pod over to Maggie as she guides us through a brief history of her culture and Native Americans in the South. We also dive into the impact of treatment and the legacy it leaves on our culture moving forward. Theme by Adeem the Artist (@adeemtheartist)

We didn't have a guest this week, so instead of diving into a single topic, Gabe and Maggie discussed the biggest headlines over the past couple weeks. As a warning, we get a little spicier than normal.

Jonathan Rich, a sociologist specializing in Marxist theory, stops by the studio to talk to us about wealth inequality in the United States and how we got here. The ruling class has done one hell of a job pitting workers against each other, but recent economic hardships demonstrated all workers have more in common than they think.

Rob Boston of Americans United sits down with Gabe and Drew to breakdown the history of the separation of church and state as well as the direction it's headed. Our founders were intentionally vague on religion, so why do some want to create a theocracy? Theme by Adeem the Artist (@adeemtheartist)

Cassie Jackson (@cassjacks) stops by to discuss the Green New Deal and Climate Change and why we need to desperately act on both. This one's a doozy and things don't look great if we continue to not do anything. Theme by Adeem the Artist (@adeemthe artist)

Alyssa Hansen of the TN AFL-CIO joins us this week to examine the state of Tennessee labor and how we can push for better conditions without resorting to turn of the 20th century tactics. Theme by Adeem the Artist (@adeemtheartist)
