In this episode of A More Perfect Podcast, I sit down with Emily Gross, host of Beerocracy—a political podcast that makes politics a little less stuffy and a lot more fun. We talk about how she started her show, what it’s like trying to create political content in such a tense climate, and why nuance in conversation is more important than ever.
We dive into the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, the fear and fallout for smaller creators, the danger of losing respect in political debate, and the role social media algorithms play in fueling division. Emily also shares her perspective on the New York mayoral race, the growing energy behind Zohran Mamdani, and what it means for the future of progressive politics.
From Jimmy Kimmel’s cancellation to the broader attack on free speech, this is a conversation about where America is headed, why dialogue still matters, and how creators like us are navigating a world that often feels upside down.
