Description

The Supreme Court heard oral arguments for FDA v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine, a case involving mifepristone or "the abortion pill" as it's come to be known. Brian and Glennis discuss why this case, as they suggest could be the most consequential abortion case since ROE. They then discuss the whirlwind week that saw NBC hire election-denying former RNC Chair, Ronna McDaniel, a public revolt from its on-air staff, and a reversal on the hire. Next, they give updates on two Trump cases: the civil fraud case which he was given a big win in getting  his bond lowered from $454 million to $175 million with an extension; and the hush-money trial which has been set to begin on April 15. That will make him the first former President ever to face a criminal trial. They also discuss the Biden team's plan to prevent Trump and his allies from trying to steal the 2024 election. Finally, a round of it's giving, a voice memo in the group chat, and a good vibe good-bye. 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.
