After a wave of June primaries, the question isn't just whether democratic socialism is winning — it's what it's actually offering. Beth and Sarah pull apart the electoral story (charisma, anti-establishment energy, and a generational shift on Israel) from the policy story: where collective approaches have something real to contribute, where capitalism still delivers, and the third thing Trump is quietly building that nobody's naming.Topics discussed:- The Mamdani effect and the June primary results across four states- Why Mamdani spent political capital endorsing three House races- The generational shift on Israel and the "Ossoff off-ramp"- How the DSA and the IMF each define their economic vision- Where markets fail (caregiving, healthcare) and where capitalism still works- "State-guided capitalism" and what Trump is actually building- Billionaires as a manifestation of the system, not the cause- Outside Politics: Confessions of a know-it-all and getting "fired" by your doctorNext week is the big one — our America 250 celebration, with Good Morning from 1776, Founding Father karaoke, and two special episodes.
