    WHY ARE BILLIONAIRES?!?: You’re Not Gonna Believe This B.S. with Amanda & Anand Giridharadas
    Jan 20 2026
    Amanda’s first You’re Not Gonna Believe This B.S. show is here: The myths and truth of BILLIONAIRES! We pull back the curtain on how billionaires were made, how much they have, how they skate on public benefits while hoarding the fruits of our labor, how they pretend to fight to keep us distracted fighting with each other (while we barely get by on their scraps), what we learned from them in the Epstein files—and how we get our cookies back. Joined by author and political analyst Anand Giridharadas, we break down: - What the Epstein emails reveal about the unwritten rules billionaires play by;- What Anand learned about billionaires from the Mandani campaign; and - Why this moment offers hope for building a more just world where we get to have nice things. About Anand: Anand Giridharadas is the author of the New York Times bestseller The Persuaders, the international bestseller Winners Take All, The True American, and India Calling. A former foreign correspondent and columnist for The New York Times for more than a decade, he has also written for The New Yorker, The Atlantic, and Time. He is an on-air political analyst for MSNBC. He is the publisher of the newsletter The Ink.

  • Have We Ruined Fun? (And the Future of the Pod!)

    Have We Ruined Fun? (And the Future of the Pod!)
    Jan 6 2026
    We start the year by asking a simple question: Why does something that’s supposed to be fun—like youth sports—feel so awful? After a scary incident at their daughter’s soccer game, Glennon and Abby talk honestly about how pressure, performance, and social capital have overtaken what was supposed to be fun. And why this problem isn’t about the kids—it’s about us. We share what’s ahead for We Can Do Hard Things in 2026, reflect on everything we’ve built together, and talk about letting go of what no longer fits so we can feel both held and free.- Why youth sports—and so many other systems—stopped being fun - How to re-enter old worlds without losing yourself - What healing looks like when it’s about trust, not quitting - What to expect from We Can Do Hard Things in 2026 Follow We Can Do Hard Things on: Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/wecandohardthings TikTok — https://www.tiktok.com/@wecandohardthingsshow
