About this listen

Why are so many Minnesota high school graduates unable to read or do math at grade level? Does Tim Walz actually think he's going to be the next president of the United States? And why does he keep swearing so much?

These are the kinds of hard-hitting questions we get into every week on the American Experiment Podcast, where we unpack the week's biggest stories, interview Minnesota's movers and shakers, and "stop the tape" on clips of our state's most ridiculous elected officials.

New episodes drop every Tuesday afternoon and are available on every major podcasting platform.

    Welcome back to the American Experiment Podcast!

    Grace and Kathryn sit down to catch you up on all the latest legal drama here in Minnesota. First, a judge orders the release of an illegal immigrant, and his 5-year-old son, after the man abandoned the child while fleeing from ICE. And, Keith Ellison suffers a loss in court as he attempts to block Operation Metro Surge.

    After that, they dig into a story from the Star Tribune: an Ecuadorian family of illegal immigrants living in Minnesota decides to self-deport.

    Next, Dr. Oz, Administrator of CMS, pays a visit to Minnesota—one of the most notorious fraud hubs in the country and home to more than $400 million in fraud. Be sure to visit our new site, MNFraudFiles.com, for the latest information and updates on Minnesota’s growing fraud scandal.

    Finally, Renee Carlson from Minnesota Family Council joins the show to talk about defending women before the Supreme Court.

    Welcome back to the American Experiment Podcast!

    This week, Grace and Kathryn kick things off with a chilling new update from the FBI on the protesters who stormed Cities Church in Minneapolis, and it’s even worse than what the videos showed.

    Next, a shocking revelation: elected Democrat leaders here in Minnesota were actively involved in directing the anti-ICE chaos through group chats on the app Signal.

    After that, stop us if you’ve heard this one before...the Minnesota Teachers’ Union is once again pushing radical political doctrine.

    Finally, we welcome special guest, talk radio show host, and former congressman Jason Lewis to the show. He joins us to talk about how Minnesota can find its way back to the “good life."
