About this listen

 At Our Table with Jaime Harrison is a new podcast inviting America to pull up a seat for honest, unfiltered conversations about our nation’s challenges and hopes. Hosted by former DNC Chair Jaime Harrison, the show brings together today’s most compelling voices for candid, “family table” discussions that cut through the noise. When Jaime got back from college, his grandfather told him, “I don’t want to hear all that fancy talk. Speak it plain.” At Our Table takes that advice to heart. At this table, everyone is welcome. But there’s no BS. Just real talk about how we move forward — together.Vision Blue Media Inc. Political Science Politics & Government Social Sciences

    Black and Latino Men on the Democratic Party
    Nov 4 2025
    In this episode we bring together three of Washington’s top political minds — Chuck Rocha, Albert Morales, and Khalil Thompson — for a candid conversation about the challenges and opportunities facing men of color in Democratic politics. From the lack of Black- and Latino-owned consulting firms to the need for culturally competent messaging and leadership, the panel unpacks how power, access, and authenticity shape campaigns — and what it’ll take to truly diversify the party’s future. Plus: concrete fixes that turn rhetoric into results.

  • “It’s Not What You’re Called, It’s What You Answer To.” - Jim Clyburn on Staying Grounded in Divisive Times

    “It’s Not What You’re Called, It’s What You Answer To.” - Jim Clyburn on Staying Grounded in Divisive Times
    Oct 28 2025
    Representative Jim Clyburn of South Carolina sits down at the table to revisit his journey from a young boy in Sumter inspired by Harry Truman to one of the most influential voices in American politics. Together, we reflect on the lessons that shaped his leadership and the mentors and moments that defined his path. Through stories of faith, family, and history—and his new book The First Eight—we explore how America has always measured its greatness by repairing its faults, and how we can do it again by choosing unity, humility, and purpose over division.

    Rep. Eric Swalwell on Courage, Strategy, and What’s Next for the Democratic Party
    Oct 14 2025
    Rep. Eric Swalwell joins us at the table to talk about fighting for democracy, standing up to MAGA extremism, and what it means to lead with courage in a divided Congress. From his unconventional path to public service to balancing fatherhood with being a top target of the right, Rep. Swalwell shares why the stakes have never been higher—and why Democrats must stop negotiating with themselves and start flexing their values. He leaves us with a reminder that leadership isn’t about comfort. It’s about courage, conviction, and showing up when it counts most. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
