If you’ve been scratching your head about what on earth is going on with the Build Back Better bill, this episode is going to be your bread and butter of reference points. We go IN on the bill with Brian Derrick, Political Strategist & Founder of Oath to get a grasp on what’s included in the bill, what’s not, and what the process looks like for potentially passing it. Naturally, since we love abbreviations, we also get into the confusion around BBB versus the BIF, and even define what the CBO does. And, if that also has you scratching your head, do not worry, just head to wherever you get your pods and listen in and learn what all of those fun bits and pieces are.
Best yet, this episode contains tons and bunches of q’s from the audience. Shoutout to all that submitted those bad boys. As per usual, if you have a q or a topic you’d like to learn more about in politics, slide into our DMs.

Healthcare Finance in the US with Julie Oliver, Executive Director and Co-Founder of Ground Game Texas
Us when talking about healthcare in the US and singing our favorite Avril Lavigne throwback: “Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated?”
But, seriously, healthcare in the US is no walk in the park. In fact, it’s more of a walk in a corn maze -- disorienting, confusing, and altogether spooky. To break down some of the basics, we had the honor of hosting Julie Oliver, Executive Director and Co-Founder of Ground Game Texas on this episode. Giving us the 411 on healthcare finance, citing a career in the industry and political know-how, Julie pulled back the red tape on medicare, medicaid, and everything else under the sun that has us scratching our heads.
