Episode Details

We’ve been conditioned to believe that changing the world means voting with our wallets, withholding our clicks, or publishing the perfect takedown online. Comedian and labor activist Adam Conover joins Dana R. Fisher to dismantle this myth and expose why digital outrage is exactly what big tech platforms want you to settle for. True civic power doesn't live on a server—it exists in your physical presence at a local meeting, a union hall, or a neighborhood association. This episode is a fast-paced, witty blueprint for moving past systemic helplessness and executing micro-actions that actually ripple upward.
