Join host Bryan Dawson, CEO of 1819 News, and investigative journalist Apryl Marie Fogel for a compelling episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, where fearless reporting meets unapologetic truth-telling. This episode dives into the heart of 1819 News' mission to hold the powerful accountable, no matter who they are, and exposes the challenges of delivering hard truths in a polarized world. The episode kicks off with a candid recounting of how Bryan and Apryl Marie first connected—spoiler: it wasn't exactly a warm introduction. Three years ago, as 1819 News emerged as a bold new media outlet, rumors swirled about its funding and intentions. Apryl Marie, then an independent journalist, was rumored to be writing a “hit piece” on the organization. A single phone call from Bryan, offering transparency (minus donor names), turned suspicion into a mutual respect that later proved pivotal. Apryl Marie's relentless questioning put Bryan in the hot seat, but her suggestion that Jeff Poor lead 1819 News' editorial team planted a seed that transformed the outlet's trajectory. Fast forward to the explosive Bubba Copeland story, where 1819 News faced national backlash for exposing a public figure's misconduct. While the media vilified 1819, Apryl Marie emerged as an unexpected ally, passionately defending their work on radio stations across Alabama. Her stance wasn't personal—it was about truth. This galvanizing moment solidified 1819's resolve to pursue fearless journalism, no matter the cost. Apryl Marie's investigative work takes center stage as she discusses her exposés on institutions like Samford University, where she uncovered a troubling disconnect between its Christian branding and DEI-driven practices. From professors promoting radical ideologies to programs undermining the faith-based values parents expect, Apryl Marie's reporting reveals how sacred institutions can betray trust. Bryan and Apryl Marie emphasize that their critiques stem from love for Samford's potential, not hate, and a desire to protect the next generation from ideological overreach. Tune in for an unfiltered look at the courage, conviction, and relentless pursuit of truth that define 1819 News. Whether it's taking on entrenched powers or navigating friendly fire, Bryan and Apryl Marie prove that doing what's right often means standing alone—until the truth prevails.
