Amanda Litman: Run for Something

Amanda Litman is the co-founder and executive director of Run for Something, an organization that supports and provides tools necessary for young, progressive Americans to launch local campaigns of their own. Since its founding in 2017, Run for Something has recruited 60,000 people to run for local office across the country, endorsed nearly 1,000 candidates, and has seen the successful election of 304 of these, 54% of whom are women, 47% people of color, and 18% LGBTQ. Prior to launching Run for Something, she was the email director (no, not those emails) for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign, deputy email director for Organizing for Action, and an email writer for Barack Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign. Today, she's also the author of a book and host of a podcast by the same name, both which document her journey in politics and highlight the inspiring journeys of some of her Run for Something candidates. In this episode, Amanda and I discuss the importance of local elections, how Run for Something’s candidates are changing the landscape of American politics, and her best advice for coping with the upcoming election month.

Sarah Ramos and Caroline Goldfarb: The Renner Files

What do actress Sarah Ramos (Parenthood, The Affair) and writer/comedian Caroline Goldfarb (The Late Late Show with James Corden, Alone Together) have in common? They’re hysterical, devoted pop culture enthusiasts, best friends, and recently launched a podcast series called THE RENNER FILES. THE RENNER FILES, created, hosted and produced by the duo, is a new kind of true crime podcast - one that’s not a true crime at all. Instead, it’s about Jeremy Renner’s app. Why did Oscar nominated actor Jeremy Renner ever have an app? Why did he do it? Who made it?  Who used it? And why did it shake the internet to its core? They set out to investigate the mystery of the app, but got so much more in return. THE RENNER FILES lays out a thrilling timeline of the app’s rise and fall through talking head interviews with key players, journalists, and unexpected Renner experts (like actor Seth Rogen). But it also tells a larger story: one about the dangerous side of celebrity fandom, the ethics of audience exploitation, the celebrity influencer complex, and the destructive power of ironic internet comedy.  In this episode, we talked about their fan-filled childhoods, from Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen cruises to NSYNC concerts, to navigating the entertainment industry, and a behind the scenes look at what went into creating one of the mosts provocative podcasts out there right now. Starting September 24th, an episode of THE RENNER FILES will be released weekly on Thursdays for six weeks.

Dr. Kouroush Maddahi On Dental Health and Our Microbiome

Dr. Kouroush Maddahi is a leading dentist in Beverly Hills and a best selling author of his latest book, The Toxic Overload: The Truth About Your Body’s Natural Defenses and How to Experience Whole-Body Health. He is one of the most well-known dentists today and has been practicing for over 33 years, creating smiles and improving the overall health of his clients through dentistry. But his passion and mission is driven around informing his patients about the connection between our oral health and our microbiome - the genetic material of all the microbes - bacteria, fungi, protozoa and viruses - that live on and inside the human body. In a time where sanitizers are our lifeline, he’s arguing the opposite through his first-ever non toxic, organically-derived line of oral products, Luminuex. In this episode, Dr. Maddahi, joined by Lumineux’s Chief Brand Officer Caroline Duggan, tells us where we’re going wrong with caring for our teeth, the lifelong consequences we could deal with, and the quick fixes that we can make to our routine right now that will ensure a healthier life. https://oralessentials.com/ Produced by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
