Welcome to Good News for Lefties, the podcast that brings you uplifting, progressive, and downright inspiring stories from the frontlines of democracy, social justice, and the fight for a fairer America. In this episode, your host Beowulf Rochlen—with that old-time radio announcer charm—delivers a hearty dose of good news for the political left. From Bernie Sanders and AOC drawing record-breaking crowds to fight oligarchy, to Black consumers boycotting corporations abandoning DEI initiatives, to Wisconsin’s surging early voting numbers, and even a heartwarming story about a man who lived homeless to raise $20,000 for housing—this episode is packed with hope, humor, and a touch of cheeky wit. Plus, we’ll dive into how states are stepping up to protect voting rights after federal courts gutted the Voting Rights Act, and celebrate the 73% reduction in suicides on the Golden Gate Bridge thanks to safety nets. So, grab your favorite beverage, settle in, and let’s spread some good news for Lefties… and America! Positive, daily news for democracy lovers!
