Vibes Only
The polls are broken. The stakes are unprecedented. And the future of democracy, like it or not, hinges on one thing – VIBES. Vibes Only is here to check the vibes of American politics and break down the need-to-know news of the week. And while one of the two major parties in the country has overwhelmingly embraced a right-wing movement whose whole vibe is undermining democracy and social progress, it’s clear we need voices that can meet voters where they are and clearly and effectively call that BS out for what it is.
Co-host Brian Derrick has earned a reputation for his ability to break down political news and define the stakes to his sizable and dedicated social media audience. Co-host Glennis Meagher is a digital media savant who has built platforms to encourage millennials and gen z to engage with politics, some for the first time. Even when the news of the week could easily kill the vibe, Brian and Glennis are like those needed friends that have the unique ability to keep it real AND pull us out of a doom spiral.
New episodes of Vibes Only are available on Wednesdays wherever you get your podcasts.

Donald Trump is Closing DARK
Donald Trump is closing with the message that he knows best. His campaign crescendoed this week with a dark, racist, hate-filled rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris continues to barnstorm battleground states, and on Tuesday night, she drew a sharp contrast by giving an inspiring speech in Washington DC - at the same location Trump gave his infamous January 6th speech. We dive into the messages and strategies of the two campaigns in these final DAYS.
We also discuss the decisions by the billionaire owners of the Washington Post and the LA Times to break precedent and not endorse a presidential candidate in this critical election.
As always, we play It's Giving, pull up our group chat, and leave you with a good vibe.
