Howdy everybody, I wanted to take a minute to tell you about another podcast I think you'll love,

it's called Best of the Left. Hosted by Jay Tom Watson with frequent guest contributors,

the show is unlike anything else out there because it's all about curation rather than creation.

Each episode focuses like a laser on a different topic, allowing deeper coverage than most

shows are capable of. Recent topics include labor unions, how the reconstruction era is still

we're talking to Anat Shankar Asorio, a social science researcher and political messaging expert,

Anat helps candidates and activists around the world when progressive causes by saying what they're

for. Even better, she can tell you exactly why some messages succeed and others fail because she

knows what moves people to take action. She is also the host of her own podcast, Words to Winby,

which charts how messaging has won progressive victories around the world. We're going to chat with
