The Gist - The Politics Of Holidays

On the show today, with Juneteenth coming up tomorrow, we take a look at some dubious holidays in a couple southern states. And in our full show interview this week, Mike talks with John Ganz, author of When The Clock Broke about those crazy 1990s and the birth of modern conservatism. A note to listeners: no-show tomorrow in honor of the holiday. Will be back live on Thursday. Have a great day off.


Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara

Consider This from NPR - Vice presidents can make or break a candidate. Here’s how Trump is choosing

We are just weeks away from one of the biggest political events of the election campaign season: the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.

Former President Donald Trump is, of course, the party's presumptive nominee, but he's yet to announce his running mate.

The list is long, but the candidates all have one thing in common — they're being considered because they could help Trump get elected in November.

NPR's Franco Ordoñez and Jeongyoon Han break down which candidates are rising to the top and why it matters.

Lost Debate - Double Haters, Peak Solar, Forced Treatment

President Biden and former President Trump have the highest share of “double haters” in at least three decades, with new data from Pew showing that a quarter of Americans hold unfavorable views of both men. Ravi discusses this after diving into the politics behind Biden’s latest executive action, which will offer new legal projections for undocumented immigrants who are married to or stepchildren of American citizens, and why the turmoil threatening China’s solar industry impacts the world.

Finally, Ravi welcomes Rob Wipond to the show to discuss his new book, ‘Your Consent Is Not Required: The Rise in Psychiatric Detentions, Forced Treatment, and Abusive Guardianships’. They explore the realities of abuse and exploitation within the psychiatric system, the growing movement to expand involuntary commitment powers, which often target homeless individuals, and whether mental health and psychiatric laws infringe on due process rights.
