  • 017 Ramshackle Resistance Pod

    17/03/2017 Duration: 43min

    Episode 17 - The Ramshackle Resistance Podcast Recorded: March 15th, 2017. We didn’t have a plan for this one, which feels like meta-commentary on what Tyler eventually came around to calling “the resistance”. Sometimes - most times - it’s important to just do stuff. The Hari Kondabolu Trump Reminder Schedule is in effect every day at Kondabolu’s twitter. Example tweet: REMINDER FOR DAY 58 OF TRUMP PRESIDENCY: THIS IS NOT NORMAL. Some digestible data on just who TrumpCare/WealthCare/RyanCare hurts and helps (hint: it hurts a lot more than it helps): A good Washington Post video Even before the AHCA was proposed, Charles Gaba started tracking ACA (ObamaCare) signups at ACASignups.net, which gives you a good idea of who got covered who wasn’t before (in each congressional district!) A solid Vox explainer (Voxplainer?) The source document, the Congressional Budget Office’s Cost Estimate for the American Health Care Act The Carrie Brownstein quote Tyler butchered, from the Hell No benefit show at Portland, Oreg

  • 016 #Platform Pod - Great American Families, Education, Healthcare, and Criminal Justice

    28/02/2017 Duration: 01h22min

    Episode 16 - Platform Pod 6 - Great American Families, Education, Healthcare, and Criminal Justice Recorded August 11, 2016.  Definitely (in our humble opinion) worth a listen now. It’s like a play-by-play of the legislation under the current president. The Family Research Council - which is labeled an extremist group by the Southern Poverty Law Center - has a strong interpretation of studies of children with same-gender parents. It’s not universally accepted, there are a lot of studies whose authors conclude there’s no significant difference or detriment to children raised by gays or lesbians: 2013: World’s Largest Study Of Same-Sex Parenting Finds That Children Are Thriving 2005: Same-Sex Parents Raise Well-Adjusted Kids Zeke Miller’s reporting (immediate launch video at link) on the behind-the-scenes finagling that resulted in the GOP platform, including this tough passage: At the full gathering, Washington, D.C. delegate Rachel Hoff, the first openly gay member of the committee, introduced an amendment t

  • 015 Misinformation in the Age of Heavy Sighs

    18/02/2017 Duration: 52min

    Episode 15 - Misinformation in the Age of Heavy Sighs -- AKA It's hard out here for a fact-checker. Recorded 02/15/2017 ProPublica has a lot more money than they did last year due to Trump’s election. They’re spending it on staff. The New York Times had their best digital subscription numbers since 2011 in the fourth quarter of 2016. A history of the Fairness Doctrine by PBS. According to Pew Research, 44% of U.S. adults get news on Facebook. Most of them - 62% - aren’t looking for it there, though. Tyler and Amanda both use feedly for news (and other stuff). Amanda obliquely referenced this Wall Street Journal but the real story is a study out of Stanford University's History Education Group which found that the majority of students had difficulty distinguishing between paid content (so-called "fake news" and a real news item online. We haven't read all the research, but the Executive Summary is here. Senator Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) is tweeting to “Whomever monitors twitter" at the White House hoping i
