This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum prep us for the first debate between Vice President Harris and former President Trump! How should Kamala respond to Trump’s factless attacks? What should her overall strategy be, get inside Trump’s head, call out every lie, or stay high when he goes low? Will swing voters even pay attention to this debate?? Along with a recap of the issues the candidates are likely to discuss, including immigration and the border, the hosts reflect on debates from the last 8 years, including Andrew’s legendary clapback at Ron DeSantis. And we’ll hear from you, our #NLPFam listeners on Monday’s MiniPod!

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum recap their week at the DNC. Some sh*t went down behind the scenes, check out our MiniPod this Monday for the full story. VP Harris and Gov Walz are doing their first joint interview with Dana Bash on CNN. We got questions–is this the right outlet, the right interviewer–what’s the strategy here? Over 200 staffers from Bush, McCain, and Romneys’ teams have endorsed the Harris/Walz ticket as mainstream Republicans jump ship; Angela knows exactly how their support ought to be used. Meanwhile, efforts to suppress the vote pick up steam in Texas as the MAGA election-deniers take over. Texas AG Ken Paxton ordered SWAT-style raids on the homes of LULAC (League of United Latin American Citizens) members. Their supposed crime? Helping folks in their community register to vote…as they’ve been doing for decades... And the NFRA (National Federation of Republican Assemblies) proposes that VP Harris is not eligible to be president, citing a slavery-era Supreme Court decision. It seems Republicans will do anything to win besides just getting the votes–they are definitely scared y’all. And of course we’ll hear from you, our #NLPFam listeners!

NLP at the DNC next week y’all!! Tune in Monday through Thursday on YouTube, we’ll be live streaming every day from the Democratic National Convention. This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum discuss the latest bizarre (weird) attacks launched at VP Harris by Trump and his campaign, and offer some strategic advice on how to handle such attacks. One big question: should she be doing more interviews and press conferences? While they’re supporting her now, not all Dems have been with Kamala since the get. Angela has the receipts on which high-ranking Democrats pushed back against Kamala’s nomination, and why. Meanwhile, the interim president at FAMU has unceremoniously fired much of the university’s leadership a week before school starts. This interim president was hired by appointees of Governor Ron DeSantis, raising questions about the motive behind the firings. And of course we’ll hear from you, our #NLPFam listeners.

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum discuss Kamala’s VP pick: Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. What does his selection bring to the ticket, some white privilege maybe? Maybe more—Coach certainly got the gibes and clapbacks; recently he is the architect of the “weird” strategy to redefine MAGA Republicans. In foreign affairs, things are heating up between Israel and Iran with the United States caught in the middle. Tiffany and Andrew weigh how a new war in the Middle East could affect this election cycle. Speaking of Israel, we just AIPAC spend millions of dollars to push out yet another progressive, Cori Bush. She lost her primary race to a Black Democrat who pledged not to run against her. Funny what money does! Lastly, the hosts weigh in on the Republican election denialism movement. MAGA Republicans have been altering the rules of local elections to make it easier to dispute and withhold the results. We have an update from the Georgia Election Board and across the country.

On this week’s MiniPod hosts Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Tiffany Cross discuss what President Biden should do with the rest of his term.

This week hosts Angela Rye, Tiffany Cross, and Andrew Gillum take on the LIES. There has been a cascade of falsehoods about Vice President Harris ever since she became the presumptive nominee for President. The hosts share Kamala’s real record as DA, CA Attorney General, and senator—not that the liars care. But seriously, how do we intend to counter all the disinformation?? Do you want to get involved this election season? The hosts offer tips on how to get politically engaged in response to a listener's question. They also answer your questions about Trump’s Agenda 47, white “control trauma,” and “voter festivals” to bring out the vote. If you’d like to submit a question send us a message and check out our tutorial video: www.instagram.com/reel/C5j_oBXLIg0/ In other news, with the National Association of Black Journalists inviting Trump to speak at their conference, Andrew gives a firsthand perspective on why diversity and safe spaces within the press corps are mission critical. A shoutout to the Tax Relief Bill working its way through the Senate this week. Contact your Senator and let them know the bill has your support! And the hosts commemorate the first anniversary of what will surely go down as a most historical event—Augusteenth 2023! Tell your grandkids y’all, you were there for the memes.

As promised four years ago, President Biden passed the torch to Vice President Harris. We officially have a new Democratic candidate for president! This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum digest yet another HISTORIC week of news and its implications for the presidential race. Should Harris debate Trump, even if it’s on Fox? How will Democrats campaign strategy change and who should be her VP? Are voters ready to elect a Black woman president?? All that and more… We say her name and honor the memory of Sonya Massey. We were all horrified to hear about and witness yet another brutal killing of an unarmed Black woman at the hands of the police– in her own home after she had called 9-1-1 for help! There could not be a clearer reason for why officers should NOT have immunity. And of course we’ll hear from you, our #NLPFam.

WHAT A WEEK y’all, we got lots to unpack. Today hosts Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Tiffany Cross have a candid conversation about the recent political violence at a Trump rally, the imminent threat of another Trump presidency, and debate what Democrats can do to turn the tide. We know you watched the debate and we know you’ve heard all the facts about the assassination attempt. Now we’re asking— how do we deal?? We are mentally, emotionally, and spiritually drained y’all— but we cannot give up! Angela and Andrew debate the viability of Biden’s candidacy with Tiffany moderating (because she finds herself somewhere in between) ended up m. Angela flexes her D.C. political knowledge and drops some gems on how to turn the tide for the Biden campaign. Tiffany brings us some important news you may have missed amongst all the noise. And all three grapple with the overwhelming emotions of this incredible political moment. And as always, we’ll hear from you, our #NLPFam listeners. We are 110 days away from the election.

NLP Fam: Meet us in our Frantz Fanon because it’s giving a major philosophical pod! Some of us may be experiencing a heat wave this week, but today’s conversation about the shallow end and the deep end is only metaphorically related to a pool: Is it safer, in life and in relationships with others, to go deep or to stay shallow? In this week’s MiniPod, hosts Angela Rye, Tiffany Cross, and Andrew Gillum unpack the many sides of that question and discuss how depth can be both intellectual and emotional, and how perceived shallowness can sometimes be deceptively deep. We all choose the moments where we reveal our depth to others, or even to ourselves. How do we make those choices? Welcome home y’all! —--------- We want to hear from you!

In a disturbing recent trend, multiple promising legal efforts and programs that addressed longstanding systems of inequality have been shut down and challenged. Last month, the U.S. Court of Appeals blocked Fearless Fund from awarding grants to historically underfunded women of color-led businesses. In Evanston, Illinois, the historic municipal reparations program is now being challenged in court. And the Oklahoma Supreme Court dismissed a suit filed by survivors of one of the worst incidents of racial violence in U.S. history, occurring in Tulsa in 1921. On this week’s MiniPod, hosts Angela Rye, Tiffany Cross, and Andrew Gillum discuss these alarming recent developments and strategize on the present and future of Black progress.

It’s been an eventful week, y’all! IMMUNE. That’s what the Supreme Court said is the case for any “official” act taken by a sitting US President. Boy are they tearing this country up. To quote the dissenting opinion written by Justice Sotomayor, “Orders the Navy's Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune… In every use of official power, the president is now a king above the law.” Justice Soto, we join your dissent! The hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum dive into what this crisis of a ruling really means for the rest of us.
