Can't wait for this!
I loved the episode of Pod Save America that you were on and I can't wait to hear and learn more! Thank you so much for this. ✊🏻
Oh my pod
Super pumped to have a new voice from crooked media
Finally.
I love crooked media and the Pod Save America guys, but I felt they were lacking some diversity and more viewpoints. Ana Marie Cox's With Friends Like These helped from a female perspective, but people of color hadn't been featured or incorporated hardly at all. Black voices desperately need to be heard and Deray is perfect for this. I'm so excited to listen to more of what he has to say.
