  • Just what I was looking for!

    I had been searching for a Michigan-focused politics podcast, specially for a progressive gal like myself, and this is exactly what I wanted! It’s like a Meidas Touch except women, which is better, and I appreciate that they cover both state and national politics and inject lots of humor into the conversation. Thanks ladies!

  • Hilarious and smart

    These ladies are the best. Julie, Gina and Adrienne are very savvy about local, state, national and international politics. You get the straight scoop with a side of funny. I listen to Pivot podcast and POD podcast to get my news. I can’t bear to listen to or watch any typical news show. I love when Norris joins the pod because he is also super smart and I enjoy his perspective. All in all, a great place to learn about the political environment, the midwest, Australia and dating on the internet!... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

AG Dana Nessel on Data Centers in Michigan
Q: What did you find in the unredacted Van Buren Google contract?
The agreement shows limited protections for ratepayers, unclear cost-tracking, potential long-term charges even if the company exits the market, and a need for stronger guarantees, including making the contract transparent and ensuring that costs would not fall on Michigan residents.
The Epstein Class Goes Unpunished
Q: What can we do as voters and citizens to punish the powerful individuals in the Epstein files?
We should focus on directly holding them accountable through voting and possibly divesting from companies aligned with them, as well as demanding a proper investigation into their connections with Epstein.
PROMO: Reviving the Democratic Party with Curtis Hertel
Q: What will be the biggest issues on the table for Michigan Democrats?
Key issues will include housing affordability, access to childcare, healthcare costs, and wage increases.
PROMO: Reviving the Democratic Party with Curtis Hertel
Q: How do you think Democrats need to revitalize their image ahead of the 2026 midterms?
Democrats need to embody a message of hope and empowerment while being seen as fighters for the people's needs.
PROMO: Reviving the Democratic Party with Curtis Hertel
Q: What does a typical day look like for you?
