  • I LOVE THIS HUMANBEING!!! I loved her truth on MSNBC and was VERY sad when Joy and other women of color were let go. I was over the moon when I came across her podcast and haven't missed a show yet. I love her knowledge and her truth and will follow her to whatever platform she uses to speak the truth.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How the Oligarchs Ate America | The Joy Reid Show
Q: What does the panel say about the practical enforceability of the Voting Rights Act after Shelby County and Dobbs?
They discuss how pre-clearance was weakened by Shelby County and how Section 2 litigation remains a tool, but it's costly and slower, which could allow states to dilute Black political power unless robust civil engagement and litigation are funded.
No King, Rotten Court | The Joy Reid Show
Q: What would convince you to support a Democrat in 2028 according to Hasan's perspective?
The guest outlines the need for anti-genocide accountability, robust domestic reform, and a platform that meaningfully addresses inequality, healthcare, education, and a non-war stance.
No King, Rotten Court | The Joy Reid Show
Q: Why do you suppose people are so obsessed with Hasan Piker and his approach to politics?
His combination of large reach, direct communication, and willingness to challenge established narratives makes him a compelling, sometimes controversial, voice that resonates with younger audiences across platforms.
No Justice, No Jokes! | The Joy Reid Show LIVE!
Q: What would you do differently as governor if you were in Keisha Lance Bottoms's shoes?
Bottoms emphasizes building an independent, non-partisan election board, expanding access to voting, protecting rural hospitals, increasing healthcare coverage (Medicaid expansion), and bringing transparency to state government.
Trump Humiliated on Iran & Cenk Joins the Show! | The Joy Reid Show LIVE!
Q: How do you view the prospects for a War Powers Resolution and congressional action on authorizing or limiting presidential use of force?
