Episode 45: Reject X, Embrace Twitter (with Jake Christie)

Episode 51: Reject Echo Chambers, Embrace Evidence

In an episode that really gets at the ongoing themes of this show, Megan and Clayton talk about how echo chambers, conspiratorial thinking, and shibboleths that require being wrong about things are harming our national discourse, and what we can do to help us get back to some semblance of evidence based public conversations.

Episode 50: Reject the Closed League, Embrace the Beautiful Game

With the World Cup only days away, and with our last couple of episodes being, well, heavy as hell, we thought we would take the opportunity to inject a little levity into the show once again and talk about the biggest things that the US gets wrong when it comes to soccer, football, calcio, the beautiful game. Things could be so much better for American Soccer, and we can make them that way.

Episode 49: Reject Trump's Forever Dodge, Embrace Foreign Policy

The Trump Administration has been maddeningly, insanely inconsistent on the causes, justification, purpose, just about everything to do with their war in Iran. Megan and Clayton take you through why this is so strange, why Congress needs to step in, and how we need to orient ourselves differently towards foreign policy going forward.

Episode 48: Reject Rejecting the Voting Rights Act, Embrace Reconstruction 2.0: The Reckoning

The Supreme Court's decision in the Callais case is, to put it mildly, a bunch of hot garbage. Megan and Clayton struggle to stay calm as they take you through the history of the VRA up to this point, as well as what this decision means going forward.

Episode 47: Reject Medical Misinformation, Embrace Modern Science

There is a rising tide of misinformation specifically related to women's health that parallels the anti-vaccine movement with startling fidelity. Megan and Clayton talk about some of the tactics of these groups, and what we might be able to do to head them off at the pass.
