  • Remember How This Feels
    Nov 4 2025

    Recorded October 28th, 2025.

    At the time of recording, SNAP benefits were hanging in the balance. As of November 3rd, millions of Americans are still waiting for benefits to be dispersed.

    It's Election Day.

    All across the nation, mayoral races, gubernatorial contests, school board seats, state Supreme Court positions, House of Delegates chambers and Attorney General offices are being decided. The people who control funding for programs like SNAP, who determine whether your community gets resources or gets forgotten, are on the ballot right now.

    In this episode, we break down the races in our hometowns, reflect on the year since the last election, and share what you need to know as you head to the polls.

    Vote for your future.

    Vote because they're counting on you sitting out.

    Vote because people fought and died for you to have this right.

    Vote because you can.

  • Protect Ya (Election) Peace!
    Oct 28 2025

    First episodeeeee! Be gentle with us as we get our wits about us. The same wits we are attempting not to be at the end of this Election season. In this episode, we speak on the political challenges facing Black women, including job losses from federal positions and ongoing voting rights issues. A week from the General Election, we also emphasize the importance of local elections and year-round civic engagement. Even with this, self-care and mental health support are always at the forefront. Listen in.
