Former U.S. Representtive Jamaal Bowman makes his first appearance on Bad Faith to talk about the future of the Democratic Party and whether he still has faith in an inside/outside strategy after AIPAC spent an unprecedented sum of millions to unseat him last year. Brie and Bowman debate the merits of Force The Vote, whether FTV activists had "no plan," and whether the Squad's alternative plans justified their inaction in that moment.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Messier Objects

In the 18th century, a French astronomer who was a regular comet hunter kept finding things in the sky that weren’t comets, but they also weren’t stars or planets. 


He created a list of these objects, not because he was trying to catalog the night sky, but rather to help other comet hunters avoid these common objects.


It turned out his list consisted of some of the most incredible objects inside and outside of our galaxy.


Learn more about Messier Objects, how they were documented and what they are on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘Dream Count’ is Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s first novel in more than a decade

Nigerian writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie hasn't published a novel in more than a decade. After writing literary hits like Americanah and essays like the popular We Should All Be Feminists, the author says she went through a period of writer's block. But now, she's out with a new novel Dream Count that tells the stories of four interconnected women. In today's episode, Adichie speaks with NPR's Michel Martin about a phrase that lodged itself in the author's mind and ultimately served as the book's first line. They also talk about a loss that caused Adichie to question how well she knew herself and a real-life sexual assault case that inspired her to write one of the novel's central characters.

Chapo Trap House - 915 – Hero Hedge feat. Joe Weisenthal (3/10/25)

We start the show discussing the arrest and detention of Mahmoud Khalil in a glaring escalation of attacks on American civil liberties in behalf of Israel & its supporters. We’re then joined by journalist and co-host of the Odd Lots podcast Joe Weisenthal to take a shockingly timely (for us) look at markets, tariffs, crypto, and economic policy under the 2nd Trump administration. Is there a plan here? Who’s actually in charge? Will these tariffs ever actually happen? Are we careening toward a recession? Joe shares his thoughts on these questions and more with us. Listen to Odd Lots wherever you get podcasts, and find Joe’s work at Bloomberg here: https://www.bloomberg.com/authors/AQ0VXvE12t0/joe-weisenthal Go see Eephus as it rolls out to your neck of the woods, search for showtimes @ https://www.eephusfilm.com/
