We've all seen what too far right looks like. But what about the other side? Can you go too far left… and what does that even mean in America?

In this episode, host Leise Winny and guest Deanna Neal (organizer, commentator, and unapologetic truth-teller) dig into the tension on the left—from disillusioned progressives to centrist Democrats losing the room. We unpack why some voters once fired up for Bernie ended up voting for Trump, and ask: Is perfectionism paralyzing progress? Are we labeling each other to death? And is the fear of being seen as "radical" holding us back from real change?

👉 A must-listen for anyone wondering where the progressive movement goes next—and how we win people over without compromising our values.
