In today's episode, I am joined by Sammy Kanter and Maddie Medved, co-founders and co-hosts of Girl and The Gov and Girl and The Gov, The Podcast, respectively. Together, we discuss their efforts to rebrand politics in a way that is both relatable and understandable to Millenials and Gen Z-ers, how podcasting has amplified their mission tenfold, and the significant role that social impact plays in everything they do. Additionally, Sammy and Maddie open up about their experiences with interrupting a historically rigid space as young women, the lack of appreciation for podcasters, struggling to celebrate wins, the constant pressure to keep up with the news cycle, their opinions on political figures being active on TikTok and Instagram, why you don't need to be an expert to get civically involved, and what keeps them hopeful about the future of politics.
