Episode #93
November 2026 will direct the future of our American democracy. Did we see this coming in 2024? Revisit our November 2024 discussion with Madiba Dennie and Lawrence Goldstone. Thoughtful, insightful, and uncannily prescient.
Episode #92
There is no such thing as a typical day in a family medical practice in rural America. Dr. Leslie Hayes of El Centro Family Health in Española, NM believes that in order for patients to have the best possible outcomes, they need evidence-based, nonjudgmental care in a place that is accessible and familiar to them. She was named a White House Champion of Change in April of 2016 for her work with substance use disorder and pregnancy. Her work was also featured in The Providers, an award-winning documentary about rural health care airing on PBS.
Episode #91
The Central Coast of California is one of the most spectacular regions in the world. But our sense of imagination for what is possible faces growing challenges. Today, too many families cannot cover the cost of housing. Many of our workforce must commute long distances because they cannot afford to live here. At the same time, the lack of a reliable water supply and strict environmental regulations add to both our housing shortage and our homeless crisis. While these challenges may seem overwhelming, local leaders have no choice but to face these challenges head-on to identify and implement solutions.
Episode #90
As Americans wrestle with questions of election integrity and democracy's future, the book Stealing Elections, American Style reveals how today's challenges are deeply rooted in history. Drawing on decades of litigating election cases and arguing before the Supreme Court, author David Walbert combines gripping stories of stolen elections with a clear explanation of how elections are routinely rigged before a single vote is cast.
Episode #89
The Center for Inclusive Democracy is a nonpartisan research center founded and directed by Dr. Mindy Romero. CID conducts national and multi-state research initiatives exploring voting behavior, civic engagement, and electoral and economic research. CID believes that inclusive civic and political participation is critical in addressing disparities in social and economic well-being, and can improve health, education, and employment outcomes.
