About this episode

Desi Lydic rates the Democratic Party's methods of opposing Trump: from off-key protest chants to interpretive dance to podcasts on the cringe-o-meter. Plus, with so many Dems saying "F**k Trump," Grace Kuhlenschmidt thinks that might just be a great idea.

Josh Johnson asks how NYCers honor black history without breaking DEI bans. 

Actor, producer, and entrepreneur Gabrielle Union sits down with Desi Lydic for a conversation about making the new film she stars in, “Riff Raff,” and how she uses her power as a producer to enact positive change in the industry and uplift people who are typically overlooked. They also discuss Union’s pride in her daughter Zaya’s actvisim work for the queer community and trans rights.
