Hysteria is brought to you by The Context.

Hi, if you're listening to our show, it's safe to say that you care about where American democracy stands and where it's headed.

There's another show you should know about.

It's called The Context from the Charles F. Kettering Foundation.

The Context is a show about how to make democracy work for everyone and why that's so hard to do.

You've heard the democracies in crisis,

many Americans feel alienated from their government, trusted institutions it's falling,

corruption and polarization have been dominating headlines, and a lot of folks are just being

left behind. But that's not the whole story. On the context, host Alex Lovett, Kettering,

senior program officer and historian, speaks with leaders, big thinkers, and folks on the context, host Alex Lovett, Kettering Senior Program Officer and Historian,

speaks with leaders, big thinkers, and folks on the ground, all working on the front lines

of democratic practice. Together, they examine the challenges and strengths of a system where,

in an ideal world, everyone gets a say. This isn't partisan spin. These are careful, clear-eyed,

non-partisan conversations on how democracy works and how you can help make it work better. Find the context wherever you get your podcasts.

In moments like these, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and even easier to feel powerless. But we are neither.

I'm Stacey Abrams, and on my podcast, Assembly Required, I take on each executive action, legislative battle, and breaking news moment by asking three questions.

What's really happening?

What can we do about it?

And how do we keep going together?

This is a space for clarity, strategy, and hope rooted in action, not denial.

New episodes of assembly required drop Tuesdays.

Tune in wherever you get your podcast and on YouTube.
