Unrig the System

Unrig the System

Podcast by RepresentUs

Now more than ever, we need tangible solutions to fix our broken political system. On this podcast, we’ll bring you the most thought-provoking, inspiring, and solutions-orientated conversations on topics including gerrymandering, ranked choice voting, rights restoration, and more. These panels were presented at Unrig Summit 2019, the nation’s largest convening of the brightest minds from the left and the right seeking to unrig the system. Unrig Summit 2019 brought together over two thousand people from all fifty states in Nashville, Tennessee to celebrate 2018’s historic victories for the democracy reform movement—and to connect, inspire, train, and organize the movement for years to come. To find out more about Unrig Summit, the democracy reform movement, and how you can get involved, go to unrig-2020.represent.us. Be sure to subscribe to this podcast to keep learning from the country’s brightest legal minds, policy experts, and grassroots leaders working to #unrigthesystem.

Millennials and Gen Zers are inheriting a broken political system that’s simultaneously responsible for some of the most consequential issues in their lives—from unprecedented  student loan debt to waning job prospects to a warming planet—and yet ignores their concerns. In this episode, some of the anti-corruption movement’s sharpest emerging leaders will discuss how they’re working past party affiliations to drive youth engagement, build political power, and lead the charge to unrig America’s failed political system in the years to come. • Moderator: Helen Humphreys, National Organizer, RepresentUs • Speaker: Weston Wamp, Senior Political Strategist, Issue One • Speaker: Manu Meel, Chief Executive Officer, BridgeUSA • Speaker: Angie Jean-Marie, Director, #VoteTogether, Civic Nation • Speaker: Benji Backer, American Conservation Coalition

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
