In Episode 287 of The All About Nothing podcast, Barrett Gruber is joined by activist and artist Preach Jacobs for a deep dive into the state of our community and the recent election cycle.

The conversation explores the damaging impact of misinformation on the electoral process and the vital role media plays in shaping public perception. From the logistics of local politics and city management to the necessity of youth involvement, Barrett and Preach challenge the status quo—even suggesting a "Trump blackout day" to refocus national attention.

We also take a moment to honor the legacy of the late Delana Dameron and discuss how art and culture serve as the backbone of community identity.
