Born from flames of the 2016 election, Crooked Media<\/a> rose from the ashes like a magnificent phoenix and jettisoned straight into podcast fame.<\/p>\n

Built by former Obama staffers, veteran journalists, and grassroots activists, this primarily pod-based media company offers up levity, accessibility, and unlikely conversations. \u201cWe couldn\u2019t find a place to talk about politics the way actual human beings talk. So we decided to create one,\u201d the founders state on their site.<\/p>\n

Here are three of our favorites that will seriously make your laundry folding really, really fun:<\/p>\n

Pod Save America is political commentary \u201cfor people not yet ready to give up or go insane.\u201d Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, Dan Pfeiffer and Tommy Vietor serve up a slice of levity while they unpack the unsettling weekly news.<\/p>\n

Pod Save the World is a show on activism and social justice hosted by DeRay Mckesson. ICYMI, Mckesson got Twitter famous for his spot-on political commentary, and has spent the last few years doing anti-police violence advocacy work in the south. Find him on this pod talking with whistleblower Edward Snowden or pop queen Katy Perry.<\/p>\n

With Friends Like These \u2013 hosted by Ana-Marie Cox \u2013 is a weekly pod that discusses what does and doesn\u2019t create division. Go here if you wanna hear Black people talk about the \u2018good kind\u2019 of white pride, or a former climate change denier talk about finding his way out of the dark \u2013 this is the pod for you. Really interesting, totally relevant.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe promise a no-bullshit conversation about politics where you can laugh, cry, scream, ridicule us daily, share your ideas, and hopefully decide that you want to help fix this mess too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now hurry up and listen. There\u2019s work to be done.<\/strong><\/p>\n
