Bad Faith is two shows in one: it's a panel show about politics and pop culture with a rotating cast of performers and politicians, artists and activists, writers and radicals; and it's a two-way podcast where two people from two very different parts of the left make the case for one less terrible world. 

Briahna Joy Gray (@briebriejoy) is a former attorney, National Press Secretary for the Bernie Sanders campaign, co-host of campaign podcast Hear The Bern, and a journalist who is early enough in her political career that she remains (tragically) sanguine.

Virgil Texas (@virgiltexas) is an internet user and co-host of Chapo Trap House.

This week, Briahna spoke to National Affairs correspondent for the Nation & associate editor of The Capital Times John Nichols about his latest book, Coronavirus Criminals & Pandemic Profiteers. An account of how elected leadership & the pharmaceutical industry failed to prevent preventable deaths, the book serves as a blueprint for a Pecora commission for the Covid era. But who should we be mad at now that Trump & Cuomo are out of office? Why is Tucker Carlson leading the charge on criticizing big pharma greed rather than elected progressives? How do we achieve accountability when our institutional memory is so short that 2020 feels like ancient history?
