Is the Democratic Party facing a messaging crisis — or something deeper?

This episode unpacks the post-election fallout and growing perception that Democrats are out of touch with working-class voters. In this episode of How to Change the World, host Catherine Alonzo sits down with Javelina's own David Waid — co-founder and VP of political campaigns — and political strategist Justin Plumb to dig into the latest trends in politics and campaigning.

From media bubbles and Hollywood influence to populism, branding, and the internal tug-of-war between progressives and moderates, they explore the complex forces shaping today's political landscape.

They also break down the tools and tactics shaping campaigns today — from AI and hyper-targeted ads to the unexpected power of authenticity — and what it will take to reach voters heading into the 2026 midterms.

If you're trying to understand what's really happening inside political campaigns — or how to build a stronger, more inclusive movement — this conversation is essential listening.
