Still Here, Still Thinking
from A Couple Thinks Podcast Hosted by A Couple Thinks
Wow — 20 episodes! Join us for this milestone check-in. In this week’s conversation, we take a breath and take stock. What’s worse than we expected at this point in Trump’s second term? (Spoiler: quite a bit.) What’s better than we expected? (Not quite so much, but still some things made the cut.) And what’s keeping us from going full despair mode this time around? We talk about the slow pace of the courts, the dangerous erosion of due process, the baffling inaction from Democratic leadership, and the too-familiar media malpractice. But we also share what’s giving us hope: grassroots momentum, emerging voices in Congress, more strategic activism, and even our own ability to stay more grounded than we were eight years ago. Plus, we spotlight the June 14th No Kings Day protests — a critical moment to show up, speak out, and remind this regime that we do not do monarchs in America.

This episode is a little bit reflective, a little bit ranty, and (we hope) a lot encouraging. Give it a listen — and if it resonates, share it with a friend who’s trying to stay sane and engaged too. 🎧 Listen now! Get full access to A Couple Thinks at acouplethinks.substack.com/subscribe
