Moms Have No Party

Dot reads a letter she wrote her neighbors at the start of the Trump government shut down. As someone who's spent equal time outside of Washington as she has in, it's a reflection on the folks she knows at the heart of this grand, and administratively violent civil war we're in: the public and those who serve them. One part epistle, one part rant, she's recording her thoughts so that one day they'...

And so with it, comes their decades old debate over which date is the appropriate day to put your tree up, are Halloween trees banned at Hobby Lobby, and somehow we made it through the holidays. It's time for more predictions, resentments, and airing of grievances. This...

After two and a half months of non-stop surprises, news and instability,k we're wiped. But we know there's more to come, and as our own party fatigue sets in, we thought sitting down with leaving MAGA founder Rich Logis, might help us find a little sanity and hope. Seven years into his MAGA journey Rich Logis began to have second thoughts about what he had devoted years to supporting. A husband, d...

Why don't facts seem to matter to some? Why is information not enough to win? These questions keep so many parents and partners up at night so we went to an expert on the business of beliefs; Denver Riggleman, former Congressional Rep, J6 Committee consultant, Husband, Father, Veteran & anti-M*ga maverick. We talk growing up in a religious household, the relationship of faith and falling in li...

Quick Dot rant. A lot's been happening. That's one way to put it. The audio is a little weird on this one but Dot's gotta get to bed. After witnessing the most awkward Oval Office presser in history, she wanted to get few thoughts on the sacred F word off her chest and obsess for a bit on why words matter.

Our in-house attorney weighs in on where we are, why we still need lawyers (more than ever) and drops some solid case law precedent.

What do politics and culture really look like through the lens of a parent? A news podcast for parents, and by parents, would mean outlooks that are more colorful and complicated than what our current partisan landscape might portray.

Dot & Adrienne blue sky what's to come for DT 2.0, debate, what our kids are thinking, how to talk to them, and whether the country can survive now that America has hit Like on oligarchs.

She's the more degreed, to the point, and very down-to-earth, fellow southern mom of 2 who's a former local candidate in her native Arkansas. One part in-house policy counsel, one part no BS ref, the better half of this feisty duo is ready to party.
