Happy Hour 271 - Democracy Forward President Skye Perryman

Fresh off her recent appearance at SXSW in Austin alongside progressive legend Stacey Abrams, we're proud to have a talk with Skye Perryman: a Waco native and president and CEO of Democracy Forward, a leading legal organization based in Washington, D.C., known for wielding their expert litigation and policy advocacy to challenge executive overreach and protect democratic institutions. Skye was named one of Time's 100 Most Influential People of 2025 - and after you hear our conversation, you'll understand why!
