  • It's all fun and eating cats until 33 bomb threats are called into a single town. Springfield has been reeling since JD Vance and Donald Trump made it the center of their racist anti-immigrant crusade. Author Talia Lavin joins to talk about how what the Haitian migrants have been subjected to is none other than pogram-like tactics: lies then violence. Then, Nation journalist Sarah Lazare joins to talk about Kamala Harris refusing to break from Biden's genocide-enabling policies, and the latest IDF murder of a protester in the West Bank. This time an American, Aysenur Eygi, who was doing the most brave of actions and bearing witness to Israeli settler and army violence. Then a round of "Loomey Tunes" with Trump's latest "it" girl, Temu Melania, conspiracy Karen, Laura Loomer.

  • What did we just watch? Vice President Harris pummeled Donald Trump on issue after issue as the old guy could barely keep a thought straight in his own head. He had nothing but wild claims about migrants eating pets, transgender surgeries in prisons, and a whole lot of running from his own record. But hey at least there's the "concepts of a plan" on healthcare. Meanwhile, how did Kamala Harris do? Sneak disses and policy proposals. Hate to say it but she kind of crushed.

    Trump proved how deeply unserious he is about winning in November, and yet, somehow the polling is still close. Francesca was joined by comedians Brandie Posey and Nato Green to look at the highlights and lowlights of the second and by far much better presidential debate.

  • How has terrible U.S. policy in Latin America led to waves of predictable migration? Michael Fox, author and host of the podcast Under the Shadow, joins Francesca to discuss how Latin America has been forever caught between neoliberal economic "development" or flat out coups, but never able to truly be sovereign. Plus a look at VERY COOL SMART BUSINESS DUDE Elon Musk's battle with the Brazilian courts over the banning 7 misinformation accounts. Also, Francesca explores Trump always-shifting abortion rights stances, and this week's very tough choice of "Cringeys".

  • On this very Frantastic Friday, Francesca plucks a few choice moments from Kamala Harris and Tim Walz's interview with CNN to dissect. Specifically her thoughts on immigration, Gaza, and whether she is flip flopping now that she is running in a general election. Short answer:
    yes. The overall takeaway is, who is Kamala Harris really? What kind of administration will she run? We simply do not know but we sure as hell know it won't be Trumpian chaos.

  • The DNC is over and the good vibes campaign can only last so long even though it's better than Trump's creeptastic candidacy. Alex Shepard of The New Republic Magazine joins Francesca to assess whether the DNC reflects the Democrats are becomig more progressive, and the pivot of the Harris campaign toward positive messaging, despite their clear fumbling of the Palestinian speaker. Comedian Karinda Dobbins is also back to talk RFK Jr.'s whale of an endorsement, and Trump's latest idea for a "sPaCE nATioNaL GUarD" and the dawn of AI policing. Finally, a game where we enact our most 'out-there' dream legislation.

  • Forget the DNC, TBR was the only show in town! Francesca and Matt Lieb make it to Chicago for a live podcast to talk real progressive power in the windy city with some amazing guests: Alderman Rossana Rodriguez-Sanchez, editor of In These Times Miles Kampf-Lassin and comedian Walter Masterson. Together they tackled Kamala's economic plan and the right's freakout over it, and local Israeli Hasbarists doing the dumbest things. Then, a deep dish dive into how Chicago socialists like Rossana are holding mayor Brandon Johnson accountable to his progressive policies and making change locally from mental healthcare to housing. And finally, a WILD game of Two Truths and Lie: RFK Jr. edition! Spoiler: it's a tough one.

  • How will Mexico's new president Claudia Sheinbaum tackle the spiral of cartel violence and political corruption? We know that the U.S. keeps outsourcing drug violence and guns to its Latin American neighbors, a fact that destabilizes the region and leads to more migration. Author and journalist Ioan Grillo is back on the podcast to talk about the balance between cracking down on gangs while not contributing to blanket militarization. They talk about why the right loves Bukele in El Savador and what steps Democrats could take to change the narrative.

  • It takes honesty and humility to de-program from Israel's propaganda. Co-founder of IfNotNow Simone Zimmerman explains her journey, the pressure on Kamala Harris, and the sickening bedfellows between high-powered Zionists and white nationalists. And comedian Eliza Skinner joins Francesca to talk about Olympic boxers Imane Khelif and Lin Yun-Ting both winning gold, and Trump's dentured lisp in his awkward interview with Elon.

  • All the white nationalists walk like this...away from Donald Trump's campaign? Oh no! Plus, Francesca reminds us all of Rep. Cori Bush's roots on this 10th anniversary of Mike Brown's murder. And Kamala's terrible response to anti-genocide protesters needs a whole lot of work. Then, Israel puts a criminal on television to explain away sexual assault of Palestinian prisoners. COOL!

  • Could it be that we have a reason to celebrate? Kamala Harris chooses Governor Tim Walz, a guy who's enacted a progressive wishlist in the state of Minnesota, signaling she's listening to the base. And the other side has... crypto-fascist billionaires bankrolling their couch-loving veep, JD Vance. Comedian Laurie Kilmartin joins Francesca to take stock of what Walz adds to the ticket and author Paris Marx is back to explain how libertarian VC ghouls became enamored with Trump. The class war isn't won, but things just got a bit more interesting.

  • Israel assassinates both a Hamas' political leader in Tehran (the guy who was working on a ceasefire deal) and a Hezbollah leader inside of Beirut, begging for a regional war with Iran and Lebanon. What will the United States do? Trita Parsi of The Quincy Institute joins Francesca to discuss the implications of this week and whether World War Three will be staved off or encouraged by Joe Biden.

  • We're talking Democrats and UK's Labour Party in an episode all about the push and pull between status quo and progressive change. Senator Nina Turner joins to talk Veep Kamala Harris now at the top of the ticket and the need to beat Trump while never taking off the pressure on Democrats. And Sonya Massey, another Black woman is killed in her home by a police officer who feels more like the standard than an outlier. Then Michael Walker of Novara Media joins Francesca to break down the exit of the Tories and whether Keir Starmer's Labour Party is changing its neoliberal ways. Finally, the cringiest JD Vance moment where he so painfully fails to defend his wife.

  • Kamala meets with Netanyahu and things are icy, especially after delivering the strongest public remarks against the assault on Gaza we have heard from any American official. Francesca gives her take on how we must divide the elites over Palestine, starting with Harris. Then JD Vance's "childless cat ladies" remarks ricochet around the country, souring voters from every stripe. Maybe his couch-f*cking will win them back?

  • Biden's out and Kamala is in. Francesca and comedian Nato Green dig into the Vice President's record in California, whether she'll prove to be better on Gaza, and if she is or is not, brat. Then James Zogby, political analyst and founder of the Arab American Institute joins to talk about how Harris should play a meeting with Bibi (if she must meet with him at all) and how Biden being surrounded by yes men meant he was the last to grasp what everyone saw.

  • The assassination attempt on Trump is nearly out of the news cycle, as the shooter's identity (registered Republican) and weapon of choice (AR-15) doesn't quite fit the right's preferred narrative. Meanwhile Biden calls for a cooling of rhetoric, pulls his campaign ads, and all but admits defeat. Comedian and husband Matt Lieb joins Francesca to talk about the real systemic sources of political violence in the United States, and bemoan the Democrats' defeatism as evidenced by Biden's stubborn commitment to lose in November. Then one-time Never Trumper JD Vance is now Trump's running mate, and along with him comes millions of tech bro billionaire dollars to help out a campaign in need. JD is perhaps the perfect lying craven opportunist to whitewash a second Trump administration's most anti-Democratic plans.

  • What's it like working in a boy's club, i.e. being a woman working in stand up. Comedian Amy Miller joins Francesca to discuss how the sausage fest is made, fighting to be paid equally and sometimes working around predators. Is there a rightward reactionary shift in comedy, and is
    there a new backlash to the backlash? TEA WILL BE SPILLED!

  • Biden digs himself into a bigger hole with every media appearance as Democrats circle the wagons to protect him... yes even Bernie and AOC. John Iadarola, host of The Damage Report, joins to discuss why Blue MAGA is deluding themselves about Biden being able to beat Trump. Then, corporations have seized on their record pandemic profits to further gouge the American people, using new algorithms and schemes to rip us off. David Dayen of The American Prospect Magazine joins to explain how they're getting away with it and what's being done to stop it. Finally a very NSFW edition of "Fash or Smash", which right winger ... would you?
