Isaac talks media layoffs and the death of the Vice with Paul Blest and David Roth. Private equity is sucking the life out of journalism. Most modern journalists have been laid off multiple times by different publications. We ask how these investment bankers sleep at night, how we got here and what we can do to save journalism. You can do your part by supporting A More Perfect Union and Defector. You can also still by my hats. Music production consultant: Nina Clark

Martin Luther King Jr. Day is less than a week away, and I couldn't let this important day pass without another episode.   It's actually my THIRD episode about Martin Luther King Jr., and I feel like this episode shows our journey as a community and my journey as an anti-racist (both personally and as an educator).   With each episode, the content has gotten more and more radical — just like the journey that Dr. Cornel West takes us on in the incredible book “The Radical King.”   The first episode — Season 3, Episode 10: “The Untold Story of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.” — was about nonviolence and loving accountability.   The second episode —  Season 3, Episode 11: “The One Thing I Wish You Knew About Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.” — was about the fact that racism and Dr. King's assassination have more to do with money and power than skin color.   And in this third episode — “Stop Using MLK to Justify Racism” — we are going to dispel 3 myths that people have perpetuated about Dr. King to justify their racism.   Those 3 myths are: Dr. King would have been against riots Dr. King would have been anti-Critical Race Theory Dr. King's dream has already been achieved   I hope by the end of this episode you feel like you have a better understanding of what this incredible man really felt about each of these issues, and I hope you feel inspired to learn more about his teachings yourself.  Bite-sized Black History  Bite-sized Black History is a program that empowers you to teach the little ones you love about brilliant Black Americans who have been largely overlooked by our history books.

Joe Biden ran for president promising to revive the spirit of bipartisanship and bring Americans together after an era of painful division. But when facing an intransigent, extremist Republican Party that has little to gain from compromise, such a vision of politics can seem quaint at best. On Episode 26 of The Politics of Everything, hosts Laura Marsh and Alex Pareene examine the history of bipartisanship as an ideal. The show features Paul Blest, a co-founder of Discourse Blog; Ed Burmila, the author of a forthcoming book on the mistakes of the Democratic Party; Osita Nwanevu, a TNR contributing editor; and Julian Zelizer, a professor of history at Princeton University. Does bipartisanship have a future in American politics? And, more to the point, should it?   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

One bombshell of a story about Goldman Sachs alleged involvement in a massive corruption scandal in Southeast Asia. Looking like Trump’s election and the cabinet he is assembling couldn’t have come at a better time for the bank.And our man on the ground in North Carolina, Paul Blest, is back on the show to talk about the dysfunction underway in the North Carolina state legislature. What are state Republicans up to this week to destroy democracy. That story coming up.Plus...nevermind the discourse over Trump’s campaign promises: we already have a Muslim Registry. Although it’s dormant. And, actually, it will soon be scrapped. Some good news about NSEERS to report later….in a Classified Session.

The Wall Street Journal editorial board delivered once of the worst takes of the election--accusing President Obama of vote-buying as his administration tries to help indebted students of for-profit colleges.Also, we mentally took you to North Carolina yesterday, when we interviewed Paul Blest, a journalist based in Raleigh. Today, we bring you insight from another swing state, Ohio. Chapo Trap House co-host and Buckeye State resident, Matt Christman (@cushbomb) bring us up to speed.And, AT&T and Time Warner want to merge. We’ve talked about how that could negatively impact consumer choice and privacy. Today, we’ll tell you about a US senator who believes the deal would also undermine Net Neutrality.

Donald Trump’s ghostwriters want to remind everyone that the GOP nominee “will ban all Muslims, believes Mexicans are rapists, pays no taxes, feels free to assault women, and lies compulsively.” Unfortunately that message is being lost under an avalanche of conspiracy theories coming out of the Clinton campaign. Also, we might be confined to the noose that is the Beltway, but today we talk to a guy who lives in a real-live Swing State, folks! Paul Blest, a journalist based in Raleigh, North Carolina, will join us to talk about politics in the Toss-Up Tar Heel State.And, Trump has ragged on China quite a bit during this election. Well now the East Asian Power had a few choice words for Trump, over the GOP nominee’s commitment to killing a climate treaty. We’ll recap the dustup in our sludge report.
