Yo, Miss! Podcast ·

2025/09/08

I had the honor of sitting down with Cait Conley, a Hudson Valley native, decorated Army veteran, and one of the Democrats challenging Republican Rep. Mike Lawler (NY-17). Conley traces her call to service back to 9/11, a moment that led her to West Point and a 16-year Army career with six combat deployments across Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and Yemen. Rising from military police officer to special operations leader, she earned three Bronze Stars and the Presidential Unit Citation. These experiences

2025/09/02

Introducing a new series: History Tea! Warren G. Harding wasn’t just America’s 29th president, he was also one of the most scandal-ridden. Corruption rocked his administration, and his private life was even messier: a decades-long affair with Carrie Phillips (their very steamy love letters were finally released in 2014) and a secret child with Nan Britton, confirmed by DNA testing in 2015.In 1923, Harding suddenly died while on a West Coast tour. His wife Florence refused an autopsy, fueling rumors

In this conversation, Mike Cortese traces his path from Nashville’s music industry to the Metro Council and now to a congressional campaign against Representative Andy Ogles in Tennessee’s 5th District. His story is rooted in community, service, and the belief that politics should be about showing up for people, not special interests. After arriving in Nashville in 2001 with no car, no computer, and no connections, Cortese built a career in the music industry and tech sector, even teaching at

2025/08/26

As someone who teaches democracy in my classroom every day, I wanted to hear directly from Representative Jason Crow about how he sees the fight for it unfolding in Congress. In our conversation, he breaks down his lawsuit against ICE, the critical role of congressional oversight, and what it takes to defend democracy in today’s political climate.The fight he describes reminded me of past moments in U.S. history when oversight was essential, from Watergate to the Church Committee, proof that

2025/08/22

In this episode of Senators x History, Senator Mark Kelly selects Thomas Edison as the historical figure he’d teach about. Edison, often called “the Wizard of Menlo Park,” was a prolific inventor whose creations, including the light bulb, phonograph, and motion picture camera, reshaped how people lived, worked, and connected with one another.For Kelly, who spent decades as a Navy pilot and NASA astronaut before serving in the Senate, Edison represents the spirit of innovation that fuels both space

Maybe Jillian Michaels Can Teach Fitness, Not Slavery...

2025/08/20

Celebrity trainer Jillian Michaels, yes, the one known for push-ups and protein shakes, not primary sources, recently took to CNN to downplay the role of slavery in U.S. history. Sitting across from host Abby Phillip, Michaels insisted that “less than 2% of white Americans owned slaves,” arguing we are exaggerating slavery’s significance.Let’s pause there. This is a classic deflection tactic. Technically, by 1860 about 8% of white Americans directly enslaved people. But focusing on that percentage

A Test Run for Authoritarianism Just Happened in D.C.

Yo, Miss! Podcast ·

2025/08/11

Today, Trump invoked the Home Rule Act to take direct control of Washington, D.C.’s police force and deploy the National Guard, despite violent crime being at a 30-year low. This unprecedented federal intervention isn’t about “law and order”; it’s a test run for the kind of executive overreach outlined in Project 2025, the far-right blueprint for expanding presidential power and eroding local autonomy. My latest video breaks down what just happened, why it matters, and how it fits into the bigger

Yo, Miss! Podcast ·

2025/08/08

Last night, I was in the room as Beto O’Rourke took the stage at the Howlin’ Wolf in New Orleans and fired up a crowd of over 2,000 people. This wasn’t a typical town hall. It was a blunt, emotional call to action, focused on resisting authoritarianism, organizing from the ground up, and refusing to write off the South. “This is not a red state,” Beto said. “This is a rigged state,” calling out the voter suppression, gerrymandering, and lack of national Democratic support in Louisiana, a state where

In Senators x History, I ask U.S. Senators what they’d teach if they had my class for a day, and how the past guides the work they do now.For our premiere, Senator Ed Markey makes the case for teaching the 1960s: from civil rights and Vietnam to organizing tactics and civic courage. His bottom line is simple: the movement didn’t end; it’s our job to keep going.Why the 1960s, and why now?Because the decade is a living blueprint:

2025/07/17

Donald Trump has been accused of sexual misconduct by over two dozen women—yet it’s rarely treated as central to his public legacy or political story. (For legal reasons I have to say that he has denied all of these allegations .) In this video, I walk through the long list of allegations, spanning decades and echoing consistent patterns of behavior. These women’s voices deserve to be heard, especially in a country where accountability too often depends on power. And while people scream about the

Election lies in the curriculum. Honest history under attack. This is more than politics, it’s a fascist purge.Oklahoma officials are pushing new curriculum standards that promote election conspiracy theories and restrict how teachers talk about race and gender. This isn’t about improving education, something Oklahoma desperately needs, given its national rankings. It’s about political control and pushing a white nationalist agenda in Oklahoma public schools. Get full access to Yo, Miss! at

What do the charts of American Inequality look like when you’re living them in a public school classroom? In this conversation, Jeremy Ney and I connect the data to the daily realities: teaching U.S. history through democratic backsliding, rising inequality, and political fear. We talk about what students are facing now, from trans rights to food insecurity, and how policies like budget cuts and book bans are showing up in real time.Because the numbers matter.

OK, so people are out here on TikTok saying Harriet Tubman wasn’t real.There’s a wave of TikToks going around claiming she was “an industry plant” or straight-up “not real.” Yes, really. People are posting like she was some government-made myth designed to “control the narrative.”This is terrifying on so many levels.I cannot believe we’re at the point where I have to say this, but here we are: Harriet Tubman was a real person. A revolutionary. A war hero. And no, she wasn’t some “industry plant”
