Description
On today's episode of The MeidasTouch Podcast, the brothers sit down with activist, feminist, author and host of The Weekly List podcast, Amy Siskind. During the interview, Amy discusses her journey from Wall Street Executive to one of the most renowned activists in politics today. We discuss a myriad of topics from GOP voter suppression bills, to how we can hold our own accountable without sounding defeatist and dissect the role of activism in the post-Trump era. Amy also takes us through her experiences covering the Trump presidency and how frightened she truly was for democracy. The brothers then discuss some big Biden wins, our special Father's Day tribute video that made headlines across the world and of course the recent news about Trump suggesting that we should put COVID-positive Americans in Guantanamo Bay (seriously).

Rep. Tim Ryan Wants to Make Government Work: <p>Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) joins the MeidasTouch Brothers fresh off his viral speech on the House Floor to discuss how Democrats can make government work for the American people, while the GQP seeks to distract with Dr. Seuss and other culture war non-issues. The brothers also ask him the question on everyone’s mind: will the Democratic rising star run for Ohio’s open Senate seat in 2022? The brothers discuss Jordy’s #ThirstTrap photos on social media, the passage of the historic American Rescue Plan, and mock a certain sad, pathetic loser who is currently sitting alone, locked away in his Florida resort. Later, the brothers discuss GQP voter suppression efforts and round out the show with a brand new edition of the new fan-favorite segment ‘Hate Mail.’</p> <p>Thank you for listening to the MeidasTouch Podcast!
