  • Burning Bras and Breaking Laws: Part 2 - Sufferin' Until Suffrage

    Burning Bras and Breaking Laws: Part 2 - Sufferin' Until Suffrage
    2025/11/03
    The fight for women's rights didn't end with Seneca Falls - that's just the opening act. In this episode, the Left of Midlife crew dives into the post-Civil War era, when the movement for equality got a little messy, and magnificently complicated. We'll trace the long, winding road from the suffrage schisms of the 1860's to the protests, pickets, and prison cells that finally delivered the 19th Amendment. Grab your metaphorical picket sign and join us in learning about the women history tried to footnote, and be reminded that democracy was never a gift - it was a fight.

  • Mini Episode: SNAPped

    Mini Episode: SNAPped
    2025/11/01
    This is an emergency mini episode - because hunger can't wait. SNAP funding could stall as soon as November 1st, living millions of kids, seniors, disabled, and working families without the help they depend on to eat. The Midlife crew cuts through the lies and the stereotypes to tell the truth: most SNAP recipients work, fraud is rare, and $6 a day doesn't make anyone rich. Get the facts, get fired up, and learn how you can help - because compassion isn't radical, its essential.

  • Burning Bras and Breaking Laws: Part 1 - The Founding Mothers

    Burning Bras and Breaking Laws: Part 1 - The Founding Mothers
    2025/10/27
    Long before women were marching in the streets or setting their bras on fire, a few fearless minds were lighting the first sparks of rebellion - one quill stroke at a time. In this episode, the Left of Midlife crew travels back to the OG feminist era: when corsets were tight, rights were nonexistent, and "well behaved women" were just getting warmed up. From Mary Wollstonecraft's revolutionary writings to Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton crashing the political boys' club, we're tracing how the earliest troublemakers laid the groundwork for every feminist fight that followed. Expect laughter, and some side eye, as we unpack the women who built the movement before it was cool - the Founding Mothers who made history, one well written hot take at a time.

    Left, Right And Totally Wrong
    2025/10/21

    In Left, Right, and Totally Wrong, the Left of Midlife crew tiptoes into the minefield between progressives and centrists — where everyone swears they’re the “reasonable one.” We’re unpacking what divides us, what still connects us, and whether compromise is collaboration… or just surrender with better PR.

  • *Bonus Episode* Democracy In The Streets

    *Bonus Episode* Democracy In The Streets
    2025/10/20

    This week, we ditched the studio and hit the streets — from Boonville to Evansville to Vincennes — for a special No Kings Rally edition of Left of Midlife.

    We’re joined by powerhouse organizer Laura King of Boonville Resistance and Hoosier Rise (https://linktr.ee/Hoosiersrise) — the group keeping democracy connected (and color-coded) across Indiana. Laura shares how she turned frustration into action, how protests really come together behind the scenes, and why staying informed is the ultimate act of resistance.

  • Shutdown or Shitshow? Same Difference!

    Shutdown or Shitshow? Same Difference!
    2025/10/13

    The government is out to lunch - AGAIN.

    Join Marsha, Lacey, and Tiffanie as they breakdown the latest shutdown drama, who’s actually paying the price (spoiler: it’s not politicians), and why D.C. feels more like daycare than democracy.

    We’ll throw some shade, drop some facts, play Real Housewives or Real Politicians?, and still try to find a little hope - because someone has to be the adult.

    Listen for the laughs, stay for the rage, because if the government can crash out….why can’t we?

    Hosted by: Tiffanie Arthur- Daviess County Democratic Chair, Marsha Fleming - Knox County Democratic Chair and Lacey Pemberton - Warrick Country Democratic Vice Chair

  • Who Runs The World?

    Who Runs The World?
    2025/10/06

    Left of Midlife is where three small-town, liberal women take on the chaos of politics, leadership, and life with sharp insight and plenty of laughs. From staring down the beginning of midlife to wondering what’s left of it, we’ve got stories and opinions worth sharing — and we’re all leaning left. From the quirks of Indiana politics to the national dumpster fire we’re all living in, nothing is off-limits. We’ll rant, we’ll laugh, and we’ll remind you that if we can’t find the humor in all this, we might just lose our minds.
