In the wake of Charlie Kirk's shocking assassination, we sit down with Kevin Jenkins—a young Black man running for Congress in Tennessee's blood-red 1st district, where he's one of the few faces that don't look like the overwhelming majority. From the poorest county in Tennessee, Kevin's doing the hard work of building bridges in Trump country while folks on the right try to paint progressives as bloodthirsty monsters.
We dig into the real aftermath of political violence—not the manufactured outrage, but the genuine horror felt by decent people across the political spectrum. Kevin breaks down what it's like organizing in rural Appalachia, fighting for universal healthcare and affordable housing in places where Diana Harshbarger votes against her own constituents' interests, and why the real enemy isn't your Republican neighbor—it's the billionaires keeping us all down.
This isn't about left versus right. It's about top versus bottom, and it's time we started acting like it. Because the South isn't just red, y'all—it's hurting, and it deserves better than the politics of division and cruelty.

Bleep! with Ana Navarro
Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story. The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper. Because information, debate, and conversation don’t just ease fear, they give us power to shape the future.
