Hosted by Myra Reneé

Mandela Barnes sits down with Myra for an unfiltered conversation about Wisconsin politics, the Democratic Party's disconnect with everyday people, and why he's considering another run for office.

Named after Nelson Mandela while the South African leader was still imprisoned, Barnes shares his journey from Milwaukee mayor's office receptionist to Wisconsin's first Black Lieutenant Governor. He opens up about losing the 2022 Senate race by just one point despite being outspent by $26 million, and why that experience taught him that traditional political playbooks are broken.

Featured Guest: Mandela Barnes

- Former Lieutenant Governor of Wisconsin (2019-2023) Founder
