The Find Out Podcast

The Cornell Seven case is back open, and the guys want to know why it took a civil lawsuit and a student newspaper to get it there. Rich, Luke, Tim, and Zak dig into the group chat 57 people saw and said nothing about, why New York law makes this so hard to prosecute, what justice could realistically look like, and what it means to raise kids in a world where this keeps happening.

Before that, Tim relives Sen. Eric Schmitt accusing Jack Smith of perjury on live TV because he mixed up the Atlanta Hawks and the Iowa Hawkeyes, plus the right-wing influencers who posted the "gotcha" in unison and deleted it just as fast.

Also: Trump's mystery leg brace, the Sharia law Tim was promised and never got, and your NPR name (drop yours in the comments).

Michael Bland, executive director of Black Men Vote, joins Tim, Luke, and Rich to break down what actually moved Black men toward Trump in 2024: not policy, but a democratic party that only shows up at the last minute, talks in jargon, and attacks the idea of getting rich. Mike makes the case for a message built on entrepreneurship, real financial stability, and straight talk (a $35 insulin cap is "we saved your family $20,000," not a seven-minute explainer). With gas and daycare squeezing everyone, and Black men now the most unemployed group in the country, Mike's read is simple: the bromance with Trump is over, but Democrats still have to earn the vote.Learn more and get involved at blackmenvote.org.

Diesel prices are doing what a year of messaging couldn't. Tim, Luke, Rich and Zak break down how the spike became the catalyst for Democrats' midterm surge, why $7 diesel could keep undecided Republicans home, and what a wave of new polls from Texas, North Carolina, Georgia, Alaska and Kansas says about the map. Plus Byron Donalds scrubbing Trump from his campaign site, and the races nobody's watching, like Minnesota.Then the crew gets into what voters actually want from a leader. Zohran Mamdani walked out of the Oval Office looking stronger than Trump, while Hakeem Jeffries' quiet meeting with Jared Kushner landed badly. That leads into a blunt argument about Kamala Harris and 2028: whether her problem was a double standard or a lack of conviction voters could feel, and why Newsom keeps getting credit as the fighter in the room. They close with a plea to drop the purity tests, back strong candidates where they can win, and give to reach races while the money can still be spent.Election night is coming. Watch it with us, free online or live in New York. Tickets at wearefindout.com/tour.Next Tuesday: Michael Bland of Black Men Vote.
