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.

Briahna recorded this episode with Matt Stoller last Friday as news was emerging about the failure of Silicon Valley Bank -- the 20th largest bank in the US. We discuss the roots of that crisis along with how antitrust factors into the disaster in East Palestine & prospective merger between JetBlue and Spirit Airlines. Finally, at the end of the episode, Briahna get's Stoller's take on Matt Taibbi's claim that the FTC's investigation into whether the Twitter Files disclosures compromised private user data is a witch hunt of sorts. We tackled a lot in this one. See you tonight on Callin to discuss.
