https://www.youtube.com/watch/XiIxWtNspZI Why Democrats are Afraid of Power
Marc J. Dunkelman, author of “Why Nothing Works: Who Killed Progress — and How to Bring It Back,” stops by the studio to talk to Lovett about how Democrats — once they regain power — can make government work again. Together they dive into the ways progressive governance changed from the New Deal to today, the influence of Robert Caro’s polemic “The Power Broker” on a generation of public employees, and why they’re both hopeful that Democrats will be able to find their way out of the darkness and learn to do big things again.

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.
