Show Notes

Oh, I was so grateful for this conversation with Danielle Moodie. We started The Check-In show to process the grief and anger and fear of rising fascism, but also for moments like these. In today’s episode we reacted to last night’s victories, including the election of Zohran Mamdani, and focused on the need to savor each and every victory while realizing the battle is only beginning. The veneer of politics has fallen to the wayside, revealing a battle between the wealthy few and the rest of us. We have to let go of the past spectacle of politics, all these manufactured controversies and “wedge issues,” and see this as the class war that it is.

I hope this conversation finds you well. Savor the feeling and channel it into the battle we have ahead of us. We’ll get there.
