Welcome home!
This week hosts Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Tiffany Cross turn their gaze towards Tennessee, where state lawmakers voted to fire the entire board of Tennessee State University last week. Does this have anything to do with the $2 billion dollars the state owes TSU, the state’s only publicly funded HBCU?! Probably.
Staying in the south, Crystal Mason recently ended her years-long battle with the Texas courts, who sentenced her to prison for FIVE YEARS just for trying to vote. In 2016, she cast a provisional ballot not knowing that it was illegal for her to do so since she was technically still under state supervision. Her life has been consumed by BS (excuse the language) legal battles ever since.
Y’all have been asking and now our hosts answer– what’s up with Project 2025? On this week’s deep dive, we dig into the woke-obsessed 900+ page document that outlines the republican plan to literally remake the federal government in their image. If Trump wins, the plan calls for him to replace tens of thousands of public employees in the FBI, Department of Justice, and more with conservative loyalists. They’re gearing up for war, y’all!
Stick around for Politics Are Everywhere, where the hosts discuss Washington State’s new Strippers’ Bill of Rights.
And as always, we’ll hear from you. Keep those questions and comments coming!!

White Supremacists in Congress? And Marilyn Mosby Stops By
This week, hosts Andrew Gillum, Tiffany Cross, and Angela Rye start off with another brief update from Trump-trial land. Then onto a special message from Bernie Sanders to young voters—will it matter?
And speaking of political messaging, New York’s Governor Hochul’s cringe-worthy comments about “Black kids in the Bronx” this week. The hosts discuss the blindspots that sometimes exist with liberal white politicians.
And Gov Hochul isn’t the only politician garnering some controversy over racially-charged remarks. We got a reminder last week that some members of Congress are just straight up racist. And so we ask, are there white supremacists in Congress? Spoiler alert: yes, and the hosts will name a few.
In Politics Are Everywhere we examine violence and the ongoing beef between Kendrick Lamar and Drake. Given the drive-by shooting outside Drake’s house, the hosts ask: at what point does beef in hip hop culture go too far?
Last but so far from least, there’s a special guest on the show today…
Justice for Marilyn Mosby! Call the White House and ask for her pardon at 202-456-1111. Sign the petition, donate, and show your support at justiceformarilynmosby.com.

Veep v. “Mamala” | MiniPod
In this week’s MiniPod, hosts Angela Rye, Tiffany Cross, and Andrew Gillum discuss Vice President “Mamala.”
Did y’all see the clip of Vice President Harris on the Drew Barrymore show last week?? The internet has been abuzz over Barrymore’s cringe-inducing comments to the Veep. The hosts catch us up and explain why Barrymore’s comments were so triggering.
Welcome home y’all!

Unrest, Death Row, and Euphoria
This week, hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum give a brief update on the Trump circus and his recent interview with Time Magazine.
Then onto news you won’t see on cable: what if hundreds of people–mostly Black men–were being slowly and painfully killed, and the government was in on it? An update on state-sanctioned lethal injections.
And guess who’s hiring? Police forces across the country, which have seen an increase in their ranks for the first time since 2020.
We’ve seen those police hard at work on college campuses, where they’ve been breaking up encampments as they arrest hundreds of students protesting the war in Gaza. The hosts unpack what we’re seeing unfold at schools across the country.
In Georgia, the battleground state is grappling with a new voter suppression law that could disenfranchise thousands and have dire consequences for the Biden administration.
Then, in Politics Are Everywhere, Tiffany delivers her signature sports expertise. There are big changes coming to how we watch NBA games; Tiffany has the details.
And of course, we’ll hear from you, our #NLPFan listeners. We are 186 days away from the election.
Welcome home y’all!

Catch and Kill, The Right to Protest
This week hosts Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Tiffany Cross go to the circus: Trump’s Trials. According to the trial testimony of David Pecker, Donald Trump participated in a “catch and kill” scheme with the National Enquirer. The paid scheme prevented them from publishing negative stories about him during the 2016 election. If only we were all so rich…we still wouldn’t do it! And at the Supreme Court, oral arguments begin to determine whether former President Trump is immune from criminal prosecution for acts committed while in office.
Protests against the war in Gaza have spread from Google to Morehouse, NYU, Columbia, Stanford, and Yale University (among others). What is up with framing the student-led, anti-war protests as antisemitic? We unpack it on the pod!
In Politics Are Everywhere, American Airlines has made it more difficult to qualify for their frequent flier points, and Angela and Tiff are NOT happy. Andrew asks, is this first world problems y’all?
And of course we’ll hear from you, our #NLPFam listeners! We are 193 days away from Election Day.
Welcome home y’all!
