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.

You may know him from his viral questions posed to the heart of empire, but independent journalist Sam Husseini has much more to say than what’s allowed at State Department press briefings. On today's show, Sam argues that activists should focus on pressuring governments that are already willing to acknowledge Israel’s genocide in Gaza to invoke the Genocide Convention treaty so that the International Court of Justice can hold Israel accountable for war crimes. Why haven’t any countries sympathetic to Palestine who are party to the treaty done this— even Palestine itself? Sam also unpacks a theory about RFK Jr’s commitment to Zionism and its possible relationship to his uncle and fathers’ assassination.
