  • Summary

  • American Democracy is not promised to us and, with all the forces working against it, saving it will take a level of work most people aren’t ready for. The Politics Girl Podcast is here to give people a reason to care and a reason to fight. Our goal is to inspire. To instill in people a true understanding of what this country COULD be, if the right people were fighting for it, and what it WILL be if they don’t. It’s a political podcast yes, but more than that, it’s a podcast about America’s potential, where one passionate, and slightly mouthy, immigrant attempts to motivate the country to become what it promised to be but, so far, has yet to become. You’ll leave more knowledgeable, more engaged, and more sure that you, personally, can make a difference to the future of American democracy. Everyone’s got a little time for that right? Subscribe for new episodes every Tuesday. We’re in a fight for our country. We sure as hell better know what we’re fighting for. xo

    None of this is Normal. A Conversation with Andrea Chalupa
    Jan 28 2025
    Well, the Dictator has arrived and it’s self reliance time. We need to grow partner groups, our own media ecosystems, and thicker skin. As guest Andrea Chalupa, expert on dictatorships and authoritarian leaders says, we can grieve what happened to our country and that our institutions didn’t save us, but we can’t cling to the status quo or disconnect from society alone and depressed. There is a future where we return to freedom, but we need to work for it. So be visible, stand out, and show your humanity, because as Andrea says, “In an age of cruelty, empathy is an act of rebellion.” No. It’s not over The mainstream media is a joke. So now, more than ever, we need to support those doing independent work and bringing the truth when it’s harder and harder to find. Help people like me be a counterweight to the lies and propaganda.

    What Now? A Conversation with Marc Elias

    Well. It happened. He’s been inaugurated. He’s pardoned the insurrectionists. He’s starting his round ups and Elon gave, not one but two, stiff arm salutes. Now what? The mainstream media is a joke. They’re already telling us we didn’t see Elon do what he did. Now, more than ever, we need to support those doing independent work and bringing the truth when it’s harder and harder to find. Help people like me be a counterweight to the lies and propaganda.

  • The Perspective You Need Right Now: A Conversation with David Bender

    The Perspective You Need Right Now: A Conversation with David Bender
    Jan 14 2025
    America is about to change and we need to counter what’s coming with philosophy not politics. We have to lead with our values, not our party. We can’t give into fear or lose hope, but must reengage in the shared principles of freedom, justice and independence. Opinions are not facts. Information is not knowledge. MAGA has created their own reality dictated from the top down. The opposition needs to find a way to build something real from the ground up. The mainstream media has let us down. Now, more than ever, we need to support those doing independent work and bringing the truth when it’s harder and harder to find. Extremists have been able to shape the mindset of this nation because the far right invested in their voice. Allow people like me the opportunity to fight back and be a counterweight to the lies and propaganda. If you find worth in what we do, please SUBSCRIBE to PoliticsGirl Premium.
