Show notes

October 24, 2026; 10am: With only ten days to go before the midterms, President Trump is continuing to very publicly meddle in the elections. AZ Secretary of State Adrian Fontes explains why it is still safe to trust the American election process and why it is more important now than ever to vote; Abdul El-Sayed is polling ahead of his opponent Mike Rogers and Republicans are resorting to Islamaphobic cheap shots. Marisa Kabas and Ayman Mohyeldin explain why those attacks aren’t landing as intended; Debbie Shields has taken the internet by storm for connecting on a very funny human level with comedian Conan O’Brien. She shares her story and why connecting with people has been a part of her life for as long as she can remember.
