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.

Journalist Julia Doubleday joins Bad Faith to interrogate whether inconsistencies exist between the left’s commitment to universal healthcare and our willingness to criticize Democrats on a range of public safety failures, and the indifference from some on the left to the Biden administration’s declaration that Covid is "over" — even as multiple refinfections present the threat of long Covid and massive public health problems. Have legitimate concerns about CDC misinformation and overly broad vaccine mandates made it difficult to discuss Covid health risks without being pegged as "authoritarian?"
