On today’s episode of The MeidasTouch Podcast, we have TWO incredible guests for you. First, we speak with Dean Obeidallah, host of The Dean Obeidallah on SiriusXM channel 127. During our conversation, Dean breaks down his thoughts on Russia, the unhinged Republican Party and what the hell is wrong with Josh Hawley.

Our next guest is the amazing A'shanti Gholar! A'shanti currently serves as the President of Emerge, the only organization dedicated to recruiting and training women to run for office. Gholar is also host of the podcast ‘The Brown Girls Guide To Politics’ (a must listen!). During our interview with A’shanti, we cover some incredibly important topics including Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson Supreme Court confirmation hearing, the structural barriers Black women face when running for office & A’shanti’s work to help elect women into office.

The remainder of the show, the brothers catch you up on all the latest breaking news from over the weekend that you need to know about.
