I had no idea that schadenfreude could be so delicious, but last week’s news cycle served up a buffet of it, giving the very worst people a generous dose of comeuppance! From high-profile convictions to good riddances, it was a great week for ‘finding out’ how the pendulum of justice swings. And to kick off this week, we celebrate Claudia Sheinbaum’s historic election as Mexico’s first female president. A climate scientist, feminist, leftist, and pro-Palestinian Jew with a PhD and a share in a Nobel Prize, she stands as a beacon of hope and a role model for us all. Let’s hope this trend of justice being served with a side of hope continues.
This week’s show is filled with voices doing their part in creating a positive impact. Here’s what you can expect:
