From Public Housing to Public Office? Meet Deja Foxx.

Deja Foxx may only be 25, but she’s been fighting for progressive causes since she was 16 — all while growing up on Medicaid, food stamps, Section 8, and even facing homelessness. Now, she’s running for Congress in Arizona’s democratic special election primary. But Deja isn’t just another influencer activist — she’s incredibly sharp, savvy, and knows exactly what working people are up against because she lived it. In this episode, we dig into what makes Deja such a powerful voice in a party that’s desperate for fresh leadership. We also talk about the issues still plaguing the democratic party, how to humanize the fight against Trump’s mass deportation operation, and why candidates like Deja aren’t just refreshing — they’re essential. 👕 **Merch** made in the USA & union-made: https://findoutpodcast.com 📬 Subscribe to bonus content: https://findoutpodcast.substack.com  📱 Follow us everywhere: @FindOutPodcast   📣 Share this episode & tag us #FindOutPodcast   📥 Send us feedback and tips: hello@findoutpodcast.com

Why We Started Find Out (Plus Some Fun Off-Topic Topics)

In our second ever in-person episode, we took a step back from Trump and the headlines and talked about why we started Find Out in the first place. The real mission behind it, the urgency of reaching men, and the left’s desperate need for no-BS conversations. But it wasn’t all serious. We also shared our favorite TV shows of all time, debated Better Call Saul vs Breaking Bad, and shared more of who we are when the politics aren’t the focal point. Less structured, more personal — and maybe our most fun episode yet. 👕 **Merch** made in the USA & union-made: https://findoutpodcast.com 📬 Subscribe to bonus content: https://findoutpodcast.substack.com  📱 Follow us everywhere: @FindOutPodcast   📣 Share this episode & tag us #FindOutPodcast   📥 Send us feedback and tips: hello@findoutpodcast.com

Our First In-Person Episode: Mental Health, Masculinity, and What We Wish We’d Learned Sooner

For the first time ever, we got together in person to record this episode — and it brought the conversation to a whole new level. We started with a deceptively simple question: What class do you wish every high school student had to take? That opened the door to a much deeper reflection on the lessons we never learned until life forced us to. In the second half, we opened up about our own struggles with mental health — anxiety, depression, and the stigma men still face when asking for help. This was one of the most raw and honest conversations we've ever had, and it’s one we hope every man, especially, takes the time to hear. And speaking of hearing — if you’ve only listened to Find Out before, this is the one to watch. 👕 **Merch** made in the USA & union-made: https://findoutpodcast.com 📬 Subscribe to bonus content: https://findoutpodcast.substack.com  📱 Follow us everywhere: @FindOutPodcast   📣 Share this episode & tag us #FindOutPodcast   📥 Send us feedback and tips: hello@findoutpodcast.com

Congressman Pat Ryan (D-NY) Talks Trump, Taxes, and Turning Voters

For the first time on Find Out, we’re joined by a sitting member of Congress—Rep. Pat Ryan of New York’s 18th district. Pat breaks down how he held onto a district that went to Trump in 2024 by leaning into direct, local engagement—even in the reddest parts of his community. We also get into why he calls the Trump tax bill a “shit sandwich,” and what Democrats need to do better when it comes to actually connecting with voters. It’s a sharp, unfiltered look at what real political leadership can still look like. 👕 **Merch** made in the USA & union-made: https://findoutpodcast.com 📬 Subscribe to bonus content: https://findoutpodcast.substack.com  📱 Follow us everywhere: @FindOutPodcast   📣 Share this episode & tag us #FindOutPodcast   📥 Send us feedback and tips: hello@findoutpodcast.com

Why Democrats Keep Beating Themselves (And How They Can Stop)

*This episode was recorded before Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis was made public.* This week we talk about how it’s not republicans beating democrats, it’s democrats beating themselves. We break down a series of their self-inflicted wounds: the party’s refusal to challenge Biden’s decision to run for re-election, their inability to communicate clearly and boldly, and the backlash David Hogg faced for calling out the DNC’s resistance to change. It’s a conversation about power, messaging, and how democrats can turn the tide in the future. 👕 **Merch** made in the USA & union-made: https://findoutpodcast.com 📬 Subscribe to bonus content: https://findoutpodcast.substack.com  📱 Follow us everywhere: @FindOutPodcast   📣 Share this episode & tag us #FindOutPodcast   📥 Send us feedback and tips: hello@findoutpodcast.com
