Good evening everybody, welcome to the first ever recording of Polititalk with Tanbir, a new podcast I hope to kick up and go somewhere with, thanks to the support of yours. Tonight, I will only be introducing myself, as well as what to expect from this podcast, so it’ll be as brief as possible.
I am “Polititalk with Tanbir”s host, Tanbir Chowdhury. I’m 18, but I’ve been politically knowledgable, aware and involved, for a little over 4 years now, beginning with the 2016 elections. I have a passion for politics. I believe you can truly help people if you’re in it, and that’s why I do hope to one day, be in the political arena, in whatever way that is.
This podcast will aim to not only keep you up to date with current events, focused around politics, but to also inspire you to get involved. I see myself as a progressive, being that my beliefs and vision aligns with policies that fall under that label. I am a huge supporter of Bernie Sanders. In fact, he’s the reason I got passionate about politics and when I turned 18, I made sure to register just to be able to vote for him, which I still will do come my states primaries. However, since he is out, the progressive movement took a huge hit, but I am hoping to remind everyone that it is not over. This movement is “Not Me. Us”. It isn’t Bernie Sanders. It isn’t me. It is you guys. It is the progressives running for House and Senate seats, state rep seats, state chairmen seats and more. It is our duty to support these progressives by amplifying them and their message, informing people about them, and if possible, donating to their campaigns.
This podcast’s Topics will include
•Pushing progressive candidates nationwide
•Press briefing summaries
•Rally coverages
•Campaign/candidate coverages
•Elections
•How to mobilize and organize
•Questions from viewers and listeners (I will always remind listeners that I am willing to answer any question to the best of my abilities in my next session)
I will TRY my best to make sessions once a week, consistently, preferably on Thursday’s at 7pm Eastern Time. If for whatever reason, I cannot, I will make that update on my platforms.
This is all for tonight. Thank you for tuning in, and I do hope you revisit. I do hope to hear from you as well. Feel free to always drop me questions on my twitter. Which is @ItsTanbirC (I-T-T-A-N-B-I-R-C).
