  • We Want Our Rules Based Life Back: A Conversation with Heather Cox Richardson

    We Want Our Rules Based Life Back: A Conversation with Heather Cox Richardson
    Sep 30 2025
    Right now we are dealing with a government who have captured all levels of federal power, and are working overtime to keep up their long standing plan to divide us so we don’t unite to fight back. Trump wants America to conform to the America he has in his head, but he can’t do it alone, so he defers to people like Russel Vought and Steven Miller who want to burn it all down to rebuild the country in their own image. This is something we simply can’t allow, but to stop it we’re going to have to work together. As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.

  • Two Separate Realities: A Conversation with former Evangelical Christian fundamentalist, Tim Whitaker

    Two Separate Realities: A Conversation with former Evangelical Christian fundamentalist, Tim Whitaker
    Sep 23 2025
    There are two separate realities in America right now. One we saw at the Charlie Kirk memorial, where God has picked a side and if you’re not with them you’re not on it, and one rooted in reality. However, the reality one…it’s not winning.

  • The Party of War?! A conversation with Heather Williams

    The Party of War?! A conversation with Heather Williams
    Sep 16 2025
    The Democrats are annoying, but the entire party including the voters are being painted with a pretty broad brush right now. The DNC and national leadership might make me furious, but the Democratic Party is still the alternative to the Republican Party in this broken two party system. So if you’re pro-democracy, pro-rule of law, pro-constitution, and you’re watching the country fall apart right now, then we can’t pretend it doesn’t matter how the Democrats are doing. We have to be supporting the Democrats who are doing good work, and challenging the Democrats who aren’t. We need to be pressuring leadership, particularly Congressional leadership, to get it together and realize we’re fighting for our lives here. Which is why we’re joined today by Heather Williams, President of the DLCC, the part of the Democratic Party responsible for getting Democrats elected to state legislatures, and unlike our federal leadership, she and her team know exactly what they stand for and how to win.

  • Trump Keeps Losing: A conversation with Democracy Forward’s Skye Perryman

    Trump Keeps Losing: A conversation with Democracy Forward’s Skye Perryman
    Sep 9 2025
    The Trump regime wants us feel powerless, like their take over is inevitable, but it’s not. Part of the struggle is simply not giving up. To stay engaged and keep your people informed as to what they’re doing to our health care, our education, our voting rights, our civil rights and then responding with action. That is what Sky Perryman and her team at Democracy Forward is doing to great success. In a recent article in the Atlantic titled “The Anti-Trump Resistance That is Actually Working” Democracy Forward is called “the single largest source of Trump‘s legal troubles”. So although every day might feel like the bad guys are winning, when you look at the courts - real, and the court of public opinion - they’re actually losing. They’re losing. Every. Single. Day.

  • This is America: A Conversation with Dr. Terence Lester

    This is America: A Conversation with Dr. Terence Lester
    Sep 2 2025
    It’s back to school, and while school shootings are a given, actual education is not. It’s September 2025 and the Department of Education is being systematically dismantled while the policy impacts of the Trump administration are only set to make things worse. From food insecurity for children who get fed at school, to school closures, to policy decisions that tell us what we can and cannot teach. Nothing is as it should be. As today’s guest, Dr. Lester is the author of the upcoming book From Dropout to Doctorate: Breaking the Chains of Educational Injustice. Dr. Lester writes: education inequality isn’t theoretical, it’s real. Behind every data point about dropout rates, underfunded schools, or academic failures there real people with potential who were left behind. Why are we abandoning the very people we’ll need in the future to make our world a safer and smarter place?

  • Is Putin Running the Show? - A conversation with international expert Jon Finer

    Is Putin Running the Show? - A conversation with international expert Jon Finer
    Aug 26 2025
    While international relationships are essential in a changing, increasingly dangerous world, under the Trump Administration America is doing major damage to both our safety and security by eroding trust with our allies being mercurial and untrustworthy to them while being generous and cozy with our “enemies". Our president clearly sees the world as a zero sum game of how things serve him, and while that particular kind of selfishness might work in the business world, when the only goal is financial success, it doesn’t work in geopolitics if you are creating partners to make the world safer and more secure. We are joined today by Jon Finer, Biden’s former Deputy National Security advisor, to let us know where the international experts feel America sits right now on the international stage.

  • WTF is HAPPENING America?!

    WTF is HAPPENING America?!
    Aug 19 2025
    Things are not right. I’m doing my pod from the road today because something wasn’t right. In my particular case it was my son’s appendix, but the wrongness of what’s going on isn’t limited to my immediate family. It’s all around us. We’re drowning in it. So, this pod is about what’s going on this week. What we should be paying attention to. How we know when things aren’t right, and just like we just did with my son, how we take the information we’re given and act if things need to change. Let me know what you think about this episode. If people like this kind of news breakdown, I’ll do more of these episodes…just from home this time. As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.

  • Trump wants you Dumb & Mean: A Conversation with Ben Sheehan

    Trump wants you Dumb & Mean: A Conversation with Ben Sheehan
    Aug 12 2025
    Don’t feel bad if you don’t know how the government works. It’s by design. Today we talk to the Host of PBS’s Civics Made Easy about the importance of offering Americans the kind of knowledge we should have but don’t, on a network that the government should fund, but won’t. Ben wants us to, “Get caught up together” and Trump wants us as stupid as possible. As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.
