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.

In this deep dive with 2024 independent Presidential candidate Dr. Cornel West, Briahna presses him on his decision to distance himself from the Movement for a People's Party, eliciting details about his prospective affiliation with the Green Party that other interviews haven't captured. Is there a chance he won't be the Green nominee? If not, what then? Also, Dr. West explains in detail why he thinks RFK Jr. dramatically misunderstands the plight of Palestinians and fails to apply the same logic he uses to argue against funding Ukraine to funding Israel. They talk campaign strategy, ranked choice voting, and more. A must-listen.
