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.
Lifelong labor activist and
authorBill Fletcher Jr.joins Bad
Faith to discuss the recent United Auto Workers
endorsement of Joe Biden and what it means for the recent
radicalism of the UAW under Shawn Fain's leadership. Of what
significance is UAW's support of a ceasefire in Gaza in light of
this endorsement, and how should a left that is invested in the
power of unions to influence politics in a progressive direction be
feeling about an endorsement that seems to come without any foreign
policy concessions from the Biden administration? Also, Brie and
Bill discuss writing political fiction, and the prospect of a
Civil-War-style standoff at the Texas border.
