    What even is pop culture anymore? with Nadira Goffe
    2025/06/10
    If you are someone who has complained that every new piece of media is a sequel, prequel, remake, reboot, or a studio banking on pre-existing IP (intellectual property) to bring in audiences, this is the episode for you. We are kicking off 2025 with Nadira Goffe, a staff writer at Slate, who helps us contextualize this moment in pop culture as well as looking back at a time when media felt like "hope-ium".

  • Is all politics local? with Gregory Royal Pratt

    Is all politics local? with Gregory Royal Pratt
    2024/11/26
    They say all politics is local, but that's difficult to believe when every single topic of conversation at our dinner table seems to have national stakes. From the books on our kids' shelves to who reads those books to them to the statues in our parks to who is allowed in our parks, every issue large and small feels like it's operating on some grand scale. It's hard to gain perspective, hard to know what information to trust, especially when some of our politicians are telling us not to trust what we've seen and heard with our own eyes and ears.

    That's where good journalists come in.

    Gregory Royal Pratt is an investigative reporter with the Chicago Tribune. He's made a name for himself covering corruption, triumphs, and everyday heroes in the third largest city in the country. We had a conversation about the power of local journalism, the influence of national politics in small town spaces, and why he wrote a book about Lori Lightfoot.

  • How do you walk the Witches' Road in real life? with Thorn Mooney, Courtney Weber, and Mawiyah Bomani

    How do you walk the Witches' Road in real life? with Thorn Mooney, Courtney Weber, and Mawiyah Bomani
    2024/10/29
    The mantel of the witch is one that has been worn by people for all sorts of reasons.

    There are those who don the black hat for political purposes, as a feminist symbol, or a way for those who find themselves on the margins of society in one way or another to reach for the power they otherwise could never hope to have.

    Then there are the people call themselves witches because they cast spells and divine the future and talk to the dead. And still there are others conjuring up new titles or resurrecting old ones all in an attempt to define a personal spiritual path that is inclusive, empowering, and allows for a spark of magic in the real world.

    I summoned three fabulous witches to help me call the corners, cast a circle, and chat all about how to walk the witches’ road in real life.

    Please support today's guests:

    Thorn Mooney
    Courtney Weber
    Mawiyah Bomani

    Order my books, The Dabbler's Guide to Witchcraft and Verity Vox and the Curse of Foxfire, here.

  • Why do we politicize hurricanes? with Dr. Sam Montano

    Why do we politicize hurricanes? with Dr. Sam Montano
    2024/10/15
    Dr. Sam Montano is no stranger to combating conspiracy theories regarding emergency management. She’s been doing it since Hurricane Katrina. She holds a BS in Psychology, as well as Master’s and Doctoral degrees in Emergency Management and teaches the subject at Massachusetts Maritime Academy. Her book Disaster-ology came out in 2021. I sat down with her to help parse fact from fiction on what FEMA is, the politicization of climate disasters, and how emergency managers are preparing for the next catastrophe.
