[The Realignment Podcast @RealignmentPod]

Last month, @esaagar previewed he and @makosloff's plan's to take The Realignment independent on Joe Rogan.

Now we're relaunching w/ @marcorubio, and episodes w/ @balajis, @JTLonsdale, @nbaschez, & @AndrewYang are on the way.

Who should we talk to? What else should we cover?

[Greg Marchese @Vintage__Street]

Good discussion: @jaketapper with @makosloff @RealignmentPod https://t.co/Fl2KpJqtVN

[Charlie Anderson @EconCharlie]

Awesome episode of @RealignmentPod with @makosloff and Giselle Hale (@gisellemarie) about Abundance Elected, a new network of nearly 130 local elected officials who are making great stuff happen in communities across the country. Really inspiring stuff: https://t.co/sVHii5dYCB

[Simon D. Halliday @simondhalliday]

Steve is also on @RealignmentPod discussing this essay today. https://t.co/X7ZhiUNWkj

[Alex Trembath @atrembath]

“Maybe the best way to get people to transition to these new technologies is for them to be just preposterously better.”

@rmcentush and tune in to me, @Noahpinion, and @makosloff here @RealignmentPod for more coverage as well: https://t.co/xvN6A7yyXN

[The States Project @StatesProjectUS]

"States, over the last 15 or 17 years, have done more harm or good than Congress has on almost every issue."

We mean it when we say everything we care about starts in the states. Hear more from our co-founder on the latest episode of @RealignmentPod!👇 https://t.co/mejoEDPpMe

Inspired by this great pod ⤵️ , in which another nationally prominent progressive says, "of course I agree w/ state & local YIMBYs on 99% of their agenda," here's a seven-item test. 🧵.

1/10

[Todd N. Tucker @toddntucker]

Here, @PEWilliams_ @jeffhauser & @makosloff model an Abundance-populist synthesis.

Hint: it's a lot easier when you root Abundance in the local YIMBYism that inspired it, which the national conversation often distracts from.

[Marshall Kosloff @makosloff]

🚨 New @RealignmentPod:

@jeffhauser & @PEWilliams_ joined me to debate abundance, permitting, corporate power, YIMBYism, and whether "abundance" is a real movement at a national & local level, or just a status quo branding exercise.

🎧 Listen now below:

[Paul E Williams @PEWilliams_]

Had a great time talking about abundance with @makosloff and @jeffhauser. Episode on Spotify, Apple, etc.

[Nancy Scola @nancyscola]

Had a fascinating time talking about how political "idea flow" works in Washington with @makosloff on @RealignmentPod:

[Shalin Jyotishi @ShalinJyotishi]

A plug for this really super episode of the @RealignmentPod, esp for the policy wonks.

@makosloff interviews @POLITICOMag's @nancyscola on the dynamics of the DC ideas industry, media ecosystems, and more.

[Marshall Kosloff @makosloff]

I've been operating on the theory that Dems are going through their own 2013 GOP moment since November.

Last night was the equivalent of Majority Leader's Eric Cantor's surprise loss in 2014.

Easy to dismiss due to personal/local factors, but in retrospect signaled the future.

[Krish O'Mara Vignarajah @KrishVignarajah]

Thanks @makosloff for having me on the @RealignmentPod to talk refugees, immigration, and the role scarcity mindset plays in making these topics even more polarizing. https://t.co/310nFfplhE

[Dr. John B. King, Jr. @JohnBKing]

I joined @RealignmentPod podcast with @makosloff to talk about Teacher by Teacher, the future of public education, and how we navigate the balance between local, state, and federal responsibility in schools.

We covered a lot: the push to eliminate the Department of Education, lessons from past reform efforts, the politics of education post-COVID, and the role teachers continue to play as anchors in our communities.

[Roosevelt Institute @rooseveltinst]

President and CEO @ewwilkins joined @RealignmentPod to talk about how we can make government work better for people.

She reminds us that you can’t build in the public interest if monopolies write the rules.

[Elizabeth Wilkins @ewwilkins]

We need a call-and-response relationship with our governing institutions. We need to hear the yearnings and frustrations of our people, and we need some urgency and fight in us to fix their problems. I talked about this on ⁦@RealignmentPod⁩. https://t.co/EKpUj1VVPh

[Richard Kahlenberg @RickKahlenberg]

Great to discuss with @makosloff important issues of race, class, affirmative action & the Democratic Party on @RealignmentPod https://t.co/io5cNkVMAf
