    How to Be a Good Person in a Bad World: A Conversation with Rutger Bregman
    Jul 8 2025
    Historian and author, Rutger Bregman believes there’s an antidote to the sense of emptiness that so many people feel, and it’s the will to make the world a better place. To devote your career to the greater challenges of our time rather than just making money. That the time has come for a moral reawakening. That moral ambition not just financial ambition is what we need if we want to fix the world and actually like our place in it.

  • Women’s Utility... Their Fertility - A Conversation with Planned Parenthood’s President, Alexis McGill Johnson

    Women’s Utility... Their Fertility - A Conversation with Planned Parenthood’s President, Alexis McGill Johnson
    Jun 17 2025
    In a world that’s become deeply transactional, we need to get more relational. We need to have the difficult conversations about access to health care, abortion care, women’s rights, minority rights, human rights…because ultimately they’re all connected. Planned Parenthood, an organization used by 1/3 of American women and 1/10 American men is under direct attack by the Big Beautiful Bill and it has nothing to do with health care and everything to do with control.

  • NO KINGS: A Conversation with Indivisible’s Ezra Levin

    NO KINGS: A Conversation with Indivisible’s Ezra Levin
    Jun 10 2025
    Those who seek to destroy democracy want us to feel overwhelmed, burnt out, hopeless and alone. Which is why we need each other for strength, camaraderie, and courage. As the Resistance on Andor say, “I have friends everywhere.” As we do too. Friends, fellow countrymen, and brave patriots who want what we do. A country that’s free, fair, just and stable, and leaders who will represent us and fight back. If we can’t find those leaders then we might, however reluctantly, have to become those leaders. Join me and Ezra Levin, as we discuss being part of the active resistance and building an army of pro-democracy warriors starting with No Kings Day on June 14th.

  • Pride & Prejudice: An American Story with GLAAD’s Sarah Kate Ellis

    Pride & Prejudice: An American Story with GLAAD’s Sarah Kate Ellis
    Jun 3 2025
    LGBTQ Americans live in a paradox. On one hand we have a growing population of LGBTQ Americans, a group whose rights are codified nationally with a supermajority of Americans supportive of life outside the heteronormative box, and yet we’re seeing a rising level of hate and extremism against that same community and anyone - be they individuals or corporations - who stand up as public allies. How can that be in 2025? Today we talk to Sarah Kate Ellis, President and CEO of GLAAD, about what to do, where we go from here and the potential of a moment like this.

    Combat veteran Kris Goldsmith reminds us when fascism grows it grows in our backyards. That if we want to tear this movement up from it’s roots, we need to do it together. As Kris says, with unity comes strength, and whether you learned that unity fighting side by side on a foreign battlefield or standing side by side in your hometown, we need to support each other as we step up and fight for our country.
