I just listened to the 45 minute interview and was very favorably impressed. The founder is an outstanding communicator. The one strong negative is that she did ask how ordinary citizens can help add to the movement. Please do an addendum!
Nancy finds and interviews so effectively very important voices and perspectives that we need right now in this fraught time. Especially drawing from our communities with common values, people who whose work needs to be amplified.
This is exactly what we need right now. Thank you Nancy B
New faces in democracy is a podcast whose time has come. With democratic institutions under threat around the world this podcast is pushing back into an important ways.
The normal state of affairs is the world is not democratic. It takes thoughtful people with energy to keep democratic institutions thriving.
New faces in democracy has taken on this challenge by interviewing interesting & important people in this effort.
Kudos to Nancy Bynum.

I learn a great deal from these podcasts and they always leave me inspired. Democracy is not a spectator sport, and this podcast embodies this fact.
This was a balm to the soul ... insight into a brilliant mind ... and one if the voices we need to follow ... thank you thank you thank you !!!
Loved the Melissa Walker episode!
The pandemic has exposed so many fissures in our society, so many inequities in our country, and so much corruption in our government. It can feel overwhelming and discouraging. This podcast has reminded me—through smart, engaging interviews with amazing people—that so much is possible if we act, each of us. Give a listen esp to the Walker interview!
This debut pod cast has made it to the top of my list. Nancy’s questions are so deep and thoughtful allowing her fascinating guest to express information, knowledge and her on-fire passion. Plus Nancy let’s her guest talk so we come away with a depth and breadth of knowledge. I sent myself an email to become a member of FutureNow in the middle, that’s how pumped I was. Great show!
Inspiring!
If you feel like you can’t change politics listen to this! Things change from the top down or the bottom up. You can actually make a difference! We are all in this together. Change on the local level is the path to success.
This podcast helps inspire me when I’m feeling down about the direction our country has taken and helps me answer the question “what can I do to create positive change?” Thank you!!!
