American Experiment Podcast
Why are so many Minnesota high school graduates unable to read or do math at grade level? Does Tim Walz actually think he's going to be the next president of the United States? And why does he keep swearing so much?
These are the kinds of hard-hitting questions we get into every week on the American Experiment Podcast, where we unpack the week's biggest stories, interview Minnesota's movers and shakers, and "stop the tape" on clips of our state's most ridiculous elected officials.
New episodes drop every Tuesday afternoon and are available on every major podcasting platform.

Episode 84 - The Mamdani of Minneapolis?!
In this episode of the American Experiment Podcast, Grace and Kathryn hit pause on Minneapolis’ own version of Mamdani. That’s right, socialism didn’t stop at NYC’s city limits; it made its way to Minneapolis too…
They also dive into Minneapolis’ latest study on how to tax the rich, plus the city’s wild idea of launching government-owned grocery stores…right here in Minnesota.
And finally, Governor Walz racks up a $430,000 taxpayer-funded tab to prep for Congress… and the line items will blow your mind. Kathryn brings the receipts, including $1,710 for “reading conservative groups’ statements.” (Shoutout to any Walz lawyers getting paid to watch this episode!)
