God Talks Fighting Fascism with Former Obama Speechwriter David Litt

The God Pod

About this episode

Dear Humans,

Is it possible to find political common ground with your brother-in-law who loves Joe Rogan? That's what we're discussing today with author and former Obama speechwriter David Litt!

David recently wrote a new book about finding common ground with the brother-in-law in question. It's called It's Only Drowning: A True Story of Learning to Surf and the Search for Common Ground and is out now!

We Discuss:

  • The recently passed immigration bill and the implications of expanding ICE powers.

  • Will there even be elections in 2026?

  • Whether "being hopeful" is dangerously naive or necessary.

  • Authenticity, populism, and George Carlin's legacy in the age of Trump.

  • Finding common ground, respecting differences, and surviving America's "waves."

  • Ice cream!
