Description

This week we’re joined by Annie Wu Henry. Annie is a political consultant & digital strategist from the commonwealth of Pennsylvania. She - like us - is chronically online and has helped craft digital strategies for organizations like the Working Families Parties and AOC. She received high praise for her role in John Fetterman’s Senate campaign - leading his TikTok content and strategy. If anyone knows digital messaging - it’s Annie.  Annie helps us check the vibes this week:If it wasn’t clear before, Super Tuesday proved that the GOP belongs to Trump and we’re set for a re-match of 2020 - media fantasies be damned. A series of national polls generated bad headlines for Biden. What, if anything, are the polls and the media missing?SCOTUS unanimously ruled that States can’t remove Trump from ballot + SCOTUS agreed to hear Trump’s immunity claimMitch McConnell announced last week that he’s stepping down from the top position for Senate RepublicansAnd Kyrsten Sinema officially closed the door for her re-election campaignIn “It’s Giving” we react to Marianne Williamson un-suspending her presidential campaign. In our group chat we discuss:Jason Kelce's retirement announcement. Taylor Lorenz’s interview with Chaya Raichik who created “Libs of TikTok”And lastly, we leave you with this good vibe: Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs is canceling $2 BILLION in medical debt for 1 million residents.Subscribe to Vibes Only wherever you get your podcasts (probably wherever you're reading this).

The polls are broken. The stakes are unprecedented. And the future of democracy, like it or not,  hinges on one thing – VIBES. Vibes Only is here to check the vibes of American politics and break down the need-to-know news of the week. And while one of the two major parties in the country has overwhelmingly embraced a right-wing movement whose whole vibe is undermining democracy and social progress, it’s clear we need voices that can meet voters where they are and clearly and effectively call that BS out for what it is.Co-host Brian Derrick has earned a reputation for his ability to break down political news and define the stakes to his sizable and dedicated social media audience. Co-host Glennis Meagher is a digital media savant who has built platforms to encourage millennials and gen z to engage with politics, some for the first time. Even when the news of the week could easily kill the vibe, Brian and Glennis are like those needed friends that have the unique ability to keep it real AND pull us out of a doom spiral.New episodes of Vibes Only are available on Wednesdays wherever you get your podcasts.
