Congressman Steve Cohen sits down for an unfiltered conversation about his Memphis political roots, his record in Congress, and his 2026 re‑election bid. The episode covers Cohen’s local accomplishments, from infrastructure grants and neighborhood revitalization to support for FedEx and the Memphis Zoo and his role on Judiciary and the Intelligence Committee.
National topics include Cohen’s views on the Israel–Gaza conflict, concerns about rising antisemitism, criticism of President Trump’s actions and the Supreme Court’s immunity decision, immigration and ICE enforcement, and the prospects for Democratic oversight heading into 2026.
Listeners can expect a candid, wide‑ranging discussion about local projects, national security, democracy and the courts, the challenges of political survival, and what qualities Cohen believes should define the district’s next leader.
