Crooked believes that we need a better conversation about politics, culture, and the world around us—one that doesn’t just focus on what’s broken, but what we can do to fix it. At a time when it’s increasingly easy to feel cynical or hopeless, former Obama staffers Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, and Tommy Vietor have created a place where people can have sane conversations that inform, entertain, and inspire action. In 2017 they started Crooked with Pod Save America—a no-bullshit conversation about politics. Since then, we continue to add shows, voices, and opportunities for activism, because it’s up to all of us to do our part to build a better world. That’s it. End of mission.

Couldn't be more pleased to see Mehdi on PSA...we really need his voice out there at the moment.

[burgermind]

mehdi needs a platform. I'm sure he's working on it, but his voice is missed

[rej]

A lot of talk about antisemitism, while Islamophobia is destroying lives all across the United States. Islamophobia was literally the reason for most of these wars in the ME was allowed by the public to go unchecked for decades. But let’s make sure to let the viewers know that criticism of Israel is not Antisemitism, we would want to get cancelled. After all no one is getting cancelled for blatant Islamophobia.

[GmaTeri]

So glad to see you Medhi! Your voice is truly missed. Looking forward to seeing more of you.

[stevewise]

MSNBC fired their best and brightest in Mehdi.

Mehdi needs a platform all to himself. Thank you for having him, Pod Save America! This was such a great conversation!

[mihaimos]

He really is brutally honest about what is going on, about things that really matters. Thank you Mehdi, guys like you are much needed these days.

Blacks are also not voting for Biden, also because of Gaza, immigration, homelessness, and reparations.
