How Democrats Have A Fighting Shot At The Midterms
The midterms are fast approaching and with the the Supreme Court's recent decision on the Voting Rights Act, the future of the Democrats is even more uncertain than before. That's where Oath comes in - a revolutionary platform that helps you maximize your donations. I'm joined by Brian Derrick, co-founder of Oath, to discuss how the algorithm works, the impact that the smart funding has had on races, and what to expect for this upcoming election. We unpack the races to look out for, how content creators are changing the political ecosystem, and how it's time for a political changing of the guard.

Explaining Christian Nationalism and Why Trump As Jesus Was One Step Too Far
It took one AI generated photo depicting Trump as Jesus Christ (or a doctor?) to cause rifts in his biggest supporting base: Evangelical Christians. Not his cheating, lying, or scamming or multitude of anti-Christian actions. So why was this too far?
I'm joined by Pastor Ben Marsh of First Alliance Church in Winston-Salem, North Carolina to explore the mentality behind Evangelical Christians and explain why this was a breaking point. Pastor Ben has been an outspoken critic of Trump and has faced death threats for speaking his views. For those that may not know much about the mentality of Christian nationalism and the evangelical movement, this is the episode for you.

The Big Myth: Election Fraud And The Facts Behind The Fear
The claim that the 2020 election was "stolen" from Donald Trump has been repeatedly debunked - yet it continues to fuel legislation that could impact millions of voters. The SAVE America Act introduces strict ID requirements and other restrictive measures that experts warn could suppress access to the ballot for thousands of Americans. But how secure are our elections, really? And what does the data actually show about voter fraud?
In this episode, I sit down with David Becker, Executive Director and Founder of the Center for Election Innovation & Research (CEIR), to separate fact from fiction on election integrity. We break down the key provisions of the SAVE America Act, examine how states are already moving to restrict voting access, and pull back the curtain on the safeguards that keep our elections secure.
