Press, podcasts, and TV, oh my!

Since launching Run for Something in 2017, I’ve done a ton of media — I write, play pundit on TV/podcasts, and advocate for our work across every possible platform that will have me.

Some of my writing over the years…

Podcasts

I previously hosted the Run for Something podcast, which spotlighted young leaders across the country.

I also did a stint hosting “Battleground” on the Recount. 

I tend to yap podcasts regularly, including (but not limited to):

TV & video appearances

I do TV a decent amount on all kinds of topics. A few shows and networks I’ve been a guest on:

I also do speaking events all over the place -- ranging from colleges to youth groups to whoever will have me. It’s fun! Email me if you want me to come talk to your group.

Finally, I shoot the shit with reporters on all kinds of topics — usually politics, but sometimes other stuff, too. You can check my social media accounts for updated press mentions.

My favorite interview of the last few years was the one I did for The Cut on “How I get it done.”
