The Driftless Rivers Coalition Selection of In-house Podcasts

We at the Driftless Rivers Coalition are trying to redefine how the primary elections in the Driftless Area work. We are starting with 7 congressional districts along the Mississippi River that stretch from the Twin Cities to the Quad Cities. This podcast focuses on how white rural Christians have been duped into voting against their own best interests. It all started with the ubiquitous conservative radio talk show hosts, but it now has spread to "rage baiting" these voters on just about every social media platform.

In rural Illinois, of all places, the Republican Party needs to encompass the goals and ambitions of the men who, more than 160 years ago, arguably were the most passionate about shaping a kinder, gentler union.

This podcast, hosted by Lester Leavitt and Josh Atkinson, hopes to engender the debating style that will be seen as a modern reflection of that time.

If you build your novel with our "Founding Events," we will help you finish it and get published. Your first draft could be done in as little as 36 hours!

Become more informed in ways to not only inoculate yourself from the populist messaging, but at the same time, help yourself heal from years (or in Lester's case, decades) of living as an inauthentic shell of who you were meant to be!
