Thom Hartmann is the nation's #1 progressive talk radio host and a New York Times bestselling author. His new book is The Last American President: A Broken Man, a Corrupt Party, and a World on the Brink. Hartmann reflects on the first year of Trump 2.0 and the destruction and chaos it has unleashed on American democracy, society, and the world. Yet he insists that despair and surrender are not options as we enter 2026. Drawing on history and the cycles of great social change, Hartmann points to signs of a growing people's movement pushing back against Trumpism, as more Americans wake up to the damage inflicted by the oligarchs, gangster capitalism, and other anti-democratic forces. Ultimately, he believes the American people will prevail and push toward a real social democracy modeled on President Franklin Roosevelt's FAIR Deal. On this special New Year's episode, Chauncey DeVega reflects on how we must keep riding the wave out of the great troubles of 2025 — balancing pessimism and optimism, fear and hope. He urges us not to pretend everything is fine or suppress anger and grief, but to acknowledge those feelings and ask the essential question: "Okay — now what are you going to do?" in 2026. And for those fortunate enough to have had a good year amid so much collective pain, Chauncey emphasizes the obligation to share that energy and to uplift others. By learning from the long Black Freedom Struggle and other pro-democracy movements, the American people can better navigate what promises to be a perilous year ahead. In that spirit, Chauncey shares an essay on the tradition of Watch Night, when enslaved and free African Americans — often in secret and at great risk — gathered on New Year's Eve to count down the minutes until the Emancipation Proclamation took effect on January 1, 1863.

As we close out 2025, Jobbin and Jeswin take a reflective (and hilarious) look back at the year—starting with one of the most iconic traditions in the South Asian Christian church: Watch Night Service.From midnight worship songs and testimony time, to feet washing, holy communion, and the infamous “if I offended you, please forgive me” line, the guys rank their Top 5 Watch Night traditions and unpack why these moments still resonate so deeply.But this episode goes beyond nostalgia. The conversation turns reflective as they look back on a year of podcasting—highlighting listener feedback, global reach, viral clips, and episodes that sparked the most engagement (including the Sunday Scaries and Fear of the Holy Spirit series). They also dive into Spotify Wrapped stats, what their audience is actually listening to (yes, Drake made the list), and what it all says about the community forming around the pod.The episode closes with gratitude, scripture, hopes for 2026, a (slightly butchered) Malayalam benediction, and a reminder of why this podcast exists—to help us feel our way toward God together.Whether you grew up with Watch Night or have no idea what it is, this episode will make you laugh, reflect, and feel deeply seen.

The Watch Night Service is a tradition the grew out of slavery, yet still is an important part of how, for many African Americans, is the only way that a new year should be brought in. The practice, called “Freedom Night” or named the Watch Night Service, began in 1862, when anxious slaves were waiting on confirmation of their freedom based on the Emancipation Proclamation. Today, the service continues in the church with prayers of gratitude for another year and blessings over what's to come.

This Christmas song isn't just festive — it's revolutionary. In today's episode, John unpacks Go Tell It on the Mountain, tracing its roots through Scripture, the African American spiritual tradition, and the long struggle for freedom and dignity. From Isaiah's prophecy to Watch Night services to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s final Christmas sermon, this episode reminds us that good news is meant to be shared — and lived. Especially by those who think good news isn't for them.

”And then finally, word comes over the telegraph that the Emancipation Proclamation is in effect. Jubilation!“ (Jemar Tisby, from the episode) The African-American Christian tradition often celebrates an all-night Watch Night service on New Year's Eve. But where does this beautiful liturgical practice come from? It dates all the way back to December 31, 1862, on the eve of the Emancipation Proclamation going into effect the following day. In this episode of Conversing, Mark Labberton welcomes historian Jemar Tisby to reflect on the history of the New Year's Eve Watch Night service. Jemar Tisby is the New York Times bestselling author of The Color of Compromise and How to Fight Racism. He is a public historian, speaker, and advocate, and is professor of history at Simmons College, a historically black college in Kentucky. Recent Books by Jemar Tisby The Spirit of Justice *Available now I Am the Spirit of Justice *Picture book releasing January 7, 2025 *Stories of the Spirit of Justice Middle-grade children's book releasing January 7, 2025 About Jemar Tisby Jemar Tisby (PhD, University of Mississippi) is the author of the new book The Spirit of Justice, the New York Times bestselling The Color of Compromise, and the award-winning How to Fight Racism. He is a historian who studies race, religion, and social movements in the twentieth century and serves as a professor at Simmons College of Kentucky, a historically black college. Jemar is the founding co-host of the Pass the Mic podcast, and his writing has been featured in the Washington Post, The Atlantic, Time, and the New York Times, among others. He is also a frequent commentator on outlets such as NPR and CNN, speaking nationwide on the topics of racial justice, US history, and Christianity. You can follow his work through his Substack newsletter, Footnotes, and on social media at @JemarTisby. Show Notes The Color of Compromise (available here)—the larger narrative of (Christian) America's racist history Watch Night Services—spending all night at church on New Year's Eve Black Christian tradition dating back to Emancipation Proclamation on December 31, 1862 ”The time between when Lincoln announced the proclamation, and when it went into effect on January 1st, 1863, was a time of tense anticipation and uncertainty.” “ What people were concerned about was, would the Confederates come back and make a deal with Lincoln?” “What I like to encourage people to do is put yourself back in that moment as best you can. You have been part of a group of people that have been enslaved since your feet first hit the shores of North America, that generations of your family members, friends, church members have been enslaved, have been enslaved, prayed for freedom, have tried to escape to freedom, have been punished for trying to escape or organize for freedom. And finally, in this massive conflagration called the Civil War, you get the president of the United States saying that you will be free at this certain time. And all of those hopes, all of those prayers, all of those dreams, all of those longings are concentrated in the moments before midnight.” ”And then finally, word comes over the telegraph that the Emancipation Proclamation is in effect. Jubilation!“ “It was in the context of a Christian religion. And so they were understanding this in the context of the Exodus and the Hebrews being freed from Pharaoh through God's intervention. And they're being freed from the pharaohs of the plantation to the promised land of freedom. And they sang spiritual songs and hymns. And ever since then, there's been a tradition of Black Christians gathering on New Year's Eve to have Watch Night service, to celebrate freedom, to anticipate the coming year and to ask for God's blessing.” “ May the joy of remembering the power of the Emancipation Proclamation help motivate us as we think about our work and our life in this coming year.” Production Credits Conversing is produced and distributed in partnership with Comment magazine and Fuller Seminary.

History grounds you in who you are. -Noelle Trent, PhD Have you ever wished that you could sit down with a historian of United States history? Meet Noelle Trent. She's spent her entire career studying the history of our country with a focus on the African American experience. A “publichistorian,” Noelle has worked at the Smithsonian's National Museum of African History & Culture in Washington, DC, and the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis, where she spearheaded MLK50 to commemorate the life, mission, and impact of Dr. Martin Luther King on the 50th anniversary of his assassination. These days, you will find her at the Museum of African American History/Boston & Nantucket, where she proudly serves as the President & CEO. www.maah.org. The daughter of a minister and a teacher, Noelle and her sisters were raised in the Baptist Church in Westchester, Pennsylvania, where her mother started an afterschool program rooted in teaching children about black history. Noelle credits her parents with planting the seed that would become her passion and her profession as a historian. Says Noelle: “When you grow up in a community with a lot of history around you, you need to have people around you to point it out.” From what it meant to be an abolitionist in the 1800s to the founding of the nation's first school for black children in 1835, to the story behind “Watch Night” services and the Jim Crow era, this episode is a tutorial in African American history. #blackhistory #MLK #CivilWar #emancipationproclamation#thestorybehindhersuccess
Send us a textIt's Election Day in the United States, and as we await results with bated breath we invite you to listen to our timely conversation with Margaret Vandenburg, author of Craze. We hear from her about Henri's story and how the centennial of the Queer Craze and crackdown inspired her to write this cautionary tale. She speaks to us about being willing and ready to stand up for ourselves as a community, and how fun, joy, and desire not only define who we are, but are acts of rebellion. Lauren promised to link her favorite spoken word she was referencing in this week's episode. However Lauren did get the quote and the author wrong. The spoken word poet she was thinking of was Valerie Kaur while the poem she was referring to was Etiquette by Andrea Gibson. Both are linked below.Valerie Kaur's @ Watch Night 2016: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCenwgheIBsEtiquette Leash by Andrea Giboson with the quote Lauren was referring to about it "never being polite to throw back the tear gas" : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HDCF7eh7lWQPlease download, share and leave a review.
