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 convenes an all-star panel of guests to break down the economic and philosophical roots of the housing crisis, and how to solve it. Rebecca Parson, a candidate for Washington's 6th congressional district, brings her personal experiences with homelessness to bear, along with observations from her district, while Canadian attorney and Global Director of THE SHIFT housing initiative, Leilani Farha, offers a global perspective. Finally, sociologist, anthropologist Dr. Dan Souleles joins from Copenhagen to apply his work on financial capitalism, and the role private equity has played in the housing market. The conversation spans the practical to the philosophical, and only deepens as it progresses. Stick around till the end, and join Briahna on Callin later this evening to discuss.
