Let Them Eat Toast
We are two Millennials who talk about politics way too much, and our significant others think this is a great ”outlet” for us. We discuss everything having to do with politics, but our focus is on Millennials and the progressive ideals that are so popular among our generation, as well as the lack of Millennial representation within our government.

Jordan and Taylor examine the recent policy positions and "flip flops" of the new Harris/Walz Campaign. We ask how long "Brat Summer" is, because it seems like the honeymoon is over and the Democratic party was just cosplaying to maintain a progressive coalition. For anyone out there who interprets our criticisms as an argument for Trump... well we have not given up that this new administration can still fight for the people, and not party mega donors. Harris can be swayed by public sentiment, or lack thereof, and Walz is still the progressive we championed in Minnesota. We will see tonight at the debate if a course correction can be made.
Also this is our 52nd episode! We thank all of our supporters on Patreon and YouTube, as well as all of the listeners across the world. We hope to continue to make another 52!

Jordan and Taylor talk about the Harris-Walz ticket and how we need to hold their feet to the fire to actually get anything done when in power. We fully admit that "voting blue, no matter who" is a cringy, dumb thing to advocate for. We want to push progressive policies, like Walz has and keep Trump out of office. The best way to do that is vote blue down ballot. Its not perfect, but its the hand we are being dealt in this moment.

Jordan and Taylor discuss the openly contested seats that are more likely to switch parties than remain where they are. Mostly this is sub-optimal news, but we do find a silver lining or two to keep just enough hope up to allow us to continue. We hope you also share our faint optimism leading into November, and remember to push for Ranked Choice Voting wherever possible!

Jordan and Taylor talk about the assassination attempt, general political violence in our history and more! PS. We never advocate for violence at any point, and will continue to hold that stance. No one should feel compelled to commit violent acts especially in the United States, however we have acknowledged in the past the historical groups have had cause to start revolutions, and rebel against a government.

Jordan and Taylor get a chance to chat with another fall hopeful candidate Reed Olson. He has some really extensive experience with local government, and we got to hear about the struggle of small towns and how the people in small towns can also be dealing with the same issues big cities are. If you like the episode and his message certainly feel free to support his campaign, especially if you live in MN!

About Us
If you made it here, that means you probably want to know more about who we are. That's awesome! Please see a curated brief sentence or two about the each of us.
Jordan: I am Jordan, and I am shorter than you would expect, but way smarter than you would expect.
Taylor: I am Taylor, and I am pretty much a nerd, but I also love football... I also unironically use "Well actually..." way too often.
