Factually! with Adam Conover

(In addition to your regularly planned episode of Factually, we’re bringing you a Friday news roundup where we check in on the week’s biggest stories as well as some that need amplification.) 

This week, Adam is joined by political writer and podcaster Erin Ryan and comedian Andra Whipple to discuss the Texas primary, the Pope dunking on A.I., and the new trend book publishers have of updating old references in books to appeal to “the kids.” How very “skibidi 6-7” of them.

The Texas Primary and the Pope Hates A.I. with Erin Ryan and Andra Whipple

Adam has been friends with LA city councilmember Nithya Raman for a long time now, and certainly didn’t expect that one day she would be running for mayor of Los Angeles. This week, Adam sits with Nithya to talk about her vision for what this city could do for its residents, how it’s already one of the greatest cities on Earth, and how Nithya made Adam believe in her before she even got into city politics.

Nithya Raman’s Optimistic Vision for LA

(In addition to your regularly planned episode of Factually, we’re bringing you a Friday news roundup where we check in on the week’s biggest stories as well as some that need amplification.) 

This week, Adam is joined by comedian Guy Branum and show producer Sam Roudman to talk about the LA mayoral race, the Supreme Court dumping minority voting rights, and Harvard dumping giving out so many A’s.

LA Mayoral Race Heats Up and Supreme Court Dumps Voting Rights w/ Guy Branum & Sam Roudman

Like it or not, we all have our limits. But this world seems to want to make us feel guilty for not constantly trying to outdo ourselves—we’re made to feel like failures if we’re not always becoming more efficient, more optimized, more “together” versions of ourselves. To put it frankly, this sucks. Author and previous guest Oliver Burkeman has written a book on how the pursuit of optimization just drives us further away from the core of happiness: embracing ourselves as we truly are. This week, Adam and Oliver talk about how to relieve the pressures that society puts on us and how to find peace and freedom in self-acceptance. Find Oliver’s book, Meditations for Mortals: Four Weeks to Embrace Your Limitations and Make Time for What Counts, at factuallypod.com/books

How to Cure Perfectionism with Oliver Burkeman

(In addition to your regularly planned episode of Factually, we’re bringing you a Friday news roundup where we check in on the week’s biggest stories as well as some that need amplification.)

This week, Adam is joined by journalist Brian Merchant and comedian Andrea More to talk about the mountain of wealth that boomers have hidden in a figurative mountain hoard, like some kind of greedy dragon that’s way too into Western shows on Paramount+. The group also talks about the growing cultural rejection of AI (whew!), and the already exhausting state of the California governor’s race.

Sonic the Hedgehog vs. the Real Housewives and Urkel with with Exploration: LIVE!

When the world gets to be too much, contemplating the endless wonder and beauty of the cosmos can be a huge relief. After all, we’re insignificant in the grand scale of space and time. But cosmic thinking can also teach us so much about ourselves. This week, Adam sits with Chanda Prescod-Weinstein, professor of physics and faculty member in women’s and gender studies at the University of New Hampshire, to talk about the truths we uncover about ourselves when we search for the truths of the universe. Find Chanda’s new book, The Edge of Space-Time: Particles, Poetry, and the Cosmic Dream Boogie, at factuallypod.com/books

Trump made gas expensive and now his supporters hate him.

The Amazon warehouse floor is infamous for poor working conditions, but the workers themselves know it best. Recently, the workers of warehouse JFK8 in Staten Island successfully organized to gain the basic working conditions many of us take for granted. In the face of one of the largest companies on the planet, and without the aid of a major union, they secured a huge victory. We’ve previously covered this while talking to the producers of the documentary Union, but today Adam sits with Amazon Labor Union cofounder Derrick Palmer to get a first hand account of the process. Derrick helped organize a union against incredible odds, remains a worker at JFK8, and has just written a how-to guide for workers looking to organize, called Handbook for the Revolution. Find Derrick's book at factuallypod.com/books

The Warehouse Workers Who Beat Amazon with Derrick Palmer

After a year and a half, Adam has finally capped off his standup tour. Friend and fellow comedian Sammy Mowrey was there to open for him at nearly every single date, and together they encountered the high highs, low lows, and strange strangeness of performing comedy across America. Today, the two look back at 18 months of touring to talk about giant puppets, Rhode Island sandwich shops, and whether Waffle House sucks or not.
