Are democrats finally focused on winning?

The fight over Trump's legacy is playing out everywhere this week — including in a reflecting pool full of hydrogen peroxide. On this episode of the Find Out Podcast, we break down the bizarre saga of the National Mall's "vandalized" reflecting pool, the no-bid contracts handed to a Trump donor with a felony record, and what this small scandal reveals about a much larger pattern of cronyism and superficiality. We also reflect on Trump's record itself — whether, after decades in public life, he's...

The UFC hits America below the belt

Donald Trump's name is coming down from the Kennedy Center, but the fight over his legacy is far from over. On this episode of the Find Out Podcast, we break down the removal of Trump's name from one of America's most recognizable cultural institutions and what it says about how history may remember his presidency.

Stopping A.I. From Destroying America with Congresswoman Sara Jacobs

A.I. already plays a role in so many aspects of our lives and lately, the negatives of A.I. have far outweighed the positives. Just ask a recent college graduate who's applied to hundreds of jobs and hasn't received a single response. While more companies have been using A.I. to scan resumes, the big issue is we don't know if these A.I. systems are breaking fair employment laws or showing any bias when fielding candidates. On this episode of the Find Out Podcast, Congresswoman Sara Jacobs (D-CA)...

Trump Had A Huge Meltdown On Meet The Press & It Was So Good!

If you haven't watched Trump's latest meltdown on Meet The Press, you should check it out because it's both painful to watch yet so enjoyable to watch this orange man baby crack under tough questioning from Kristen Welker. Trump reported by rehashing his lies about voter fraud, which he used in 2020 when discussing the results of California's election. It's important to remember that Trump is freaking out because his endorsed candidate for governor, Steve Hilton, might not make it into the top t...

He dives into the California and Iowa election results from Tuesday's primaries, the latest Graham Platner controversy and Bari Weiss destroying 60 Minutes.

Young Male Viewers Aren't Anti-Democrat, They're Anti-Failure

Since President Obama won the presidency in 2008, Democrats have long believed that younger voters would automatically vote Democratic because of the Republican Party's extreme positions on social issues. But the 2024 election disproved that when Donald Trump made significant gains with male Gen Z voters proving that the Democrats have a young male problem. While the same Gen Z male voters who voted for Trump have soured on him in large numbers, this doesn't mean they will automatically swing ba...

We like to win

We here on the Find Out Podcast are a big fans of Democrats winning elections and we couldn't be happier with this week's news that Attorney General Ken Paxton (R-TX), who was endorsed by Trump, won his runoff election, unseating the incumbent U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) as the Republican nominee. Why are we excited about this? Because Paxton, who has been impeached by the Republican Super Majority in the Texas state legislature for embezzlement, busted for an extramarital affair and is gene...

We all get cancelled!

On this episode, all four Find Out Podcast hosts are going to reveal their controversial Hot Takes on some big issues. We warn you that some of these hot takes might be triggering but we open this episode to a civil debate on the issues: Zak has some strong opinions on how the left discusses Israel. Luke wants Democrats who know nothing about how assault weapons work to just shut the f*** up. Rich doesn't have a fundamental problem with the death penalty. Tim remains adamant that Sen. Chris Van ...

Racist Gerrymandering Won't Be Enough To Stop Justin Pearson

We continue covering the assault on voting rights following the Supreme Court's decision to gut the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Republican state legislatures in Southern states like Tennessee, Louisiana and Alabama have wasted no time eliminating Black districts, stripping Black voters of their voices. Our guest, State Rep. Justin Pearson (D-TN), correctly states that the government can act quite fast when it comes to suppressing voters. We're very grateful Rep. Pearson was able to make time to e...

Sen. Mark Kelly Destroys Pete Hegseth & Trump For Trying To Strip Veterans Of Their Free Speech Rights

Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) is no stranger to having to deal with “Department of War” Secretary, Pete Hegseth. This time, Hegseth wants the Pentagon to investigate Kelly over comments Kelly made about U.S. weapon stockpiles amid the Iran War, claiming Kelly “leaked classified information”. There’s just one problem: the remarks Kelly made that have Hegseth in such a drunken rage are actual public quotes Hegseth made himself. No, you’re not drunk like Hegseth at a strip club, you read that correctly. S...

Texas Republicans Aren't Ready For This Latino Deputy Sheriff Running For Congress As A Democrat

Given the latest news regarding gerrymandering and Republicans in the South doing everything they can to eliminate black districts, we're very pleased to have congressional candidate, Johnny Garcia (D-TX) on today's show. He wants to prove that gerrymandering won't be enough for the GOP to prevent a Blue Wave in the 2026 midterm elections. Garcia is a Deputy Sheriff running in the newly redrawn 35th district. Governor Greg Abbott (R-TX) ordered the Texas GOP state legislature to redraw the maps ...

OBGYN Explains What Happens If The Supreme Court Upholds Abortion pill ban

The Supreme Court recently put a hold on the the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit in a lawsuit by Louisiana banning access to mifepristone by mail. The ruling came from (check notes) Justice Sam Alito upon request from the FDA and the drug companies that manufacture Mifepristone. Mifepristone is considered an abortion pill and is made available to everyone in the mail courtesy of blue states like California and New York's shield laws. While this is a surprising move by a very conservati...

Harry Sisson Sees Signs of Democrats FINALLY Winning the Internet

Since losing the 2024 election, the Democratic Party has been under scrutiny for lagging significantly in the digital creator, podcast and influencer game. Podcasters like Theo Von, Andrew Schulz, and Joe Rogan all played a big role in influencing Gen Z males to turn out for Trump. But as Trump has lost support amongst this demographic, has the Democratic Party learned anything? We welcome Harry Sisson on this episode to weigh in on how the party is catching up to the Republicans regarding their...

The MAGA Meltdown Over Virginia Redistricting & Tucker Carlson's Crocodile Tears

Mr. Fullerton Goes To Washington. That explains why he's missing from this episode but the rest of the Find Out team is here to celebrate and recap Tuesday's victory in Virginia. It's been amazing watching MAGA have its hilariously hypocritical meltdown over Virginia Democrats fighting back against Trump's efforts to rig the 2026 midterm elections in the Republicans' favor. We call out the Jeff Bezos owned Washington Post Editorial Board for lying about how the Texas Republican gerrymander isn't...

Trump Is Having A Jimmy Carter Level Presidency

It's looking like another TACO Tuesday for Trump as he goes back and forth on extending his ceasefire deadline to try and secure a deal with Iran. With rising gas prices, inflation unemployment and a crisis with Iran that Mr. Art Of The Deal created, Trump's presidency has officially entered Jimmy Carter territory. On this episode of the Find Out Podcast, we discuss how Trump has not only contradicted his own Secretary of Treasury, Scott Bessent, on gas prices, but he's also been screaming at th...

Don't Expect Pre-War Gas Prices Soon

Here's a fun fact: Gas prices took 18 months to rise during Joe Biden's presidency due to post-COVID supply issues and Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Under Trump, it took just one month after attacking Iran. We taped this episode before Trump's speech on Iran.

Why We Should Still Compete in Safe Red Districts

A surprising special election in northwest Georgia — the race to replace Marjorie Taylor Greene — shows why. Democrat Shawn Harris shocked political observers by finishing first in the initial round of voting in one of the most conservative districts in the country, forcing a runoff with Trump-backed Republican Clayton Fuller. So what happens when Democrats actually show up everywhere? You build infrastructure. You force Republicans to defend their turf. And sometimes — just sometimes — you shoc...
