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.

National Legal Director at the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee and civil liberties defender Jenin Younes joins Bad Faith fresh off her Twitter spat with Vice President J.D. Vance over the ICE shooting of Renée Good and her subsequent appearance on The Daily Show. Jenin explains what it's like to have consistently defended the First Amendment and civil liberties throughout COVID, October 7th, & the current ICE raids -- even when these issues have taken on different ideological valences.
