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.
This
week, Briahna speaks to congressional candidate from Nevada's 1st
district,Amy
Vilela, about how she
plans to address mounting frustrations from progressive voters
about electoral politics. With so many progressive with
legitimately powerful lived experiences in office, and do little
progress, is that enough? Is Vilela willing to be genuinely
adversarial to the Democratic party? If another #ForceTheVote
scenario arose, would she withhold her vote for a must pass bill,
or come out openly against Nancy Pelosi and House leadership?
Briahna asked all this and more.
