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 92 - The Marxist Millionaire: Ilhan Omar's Story
Welcome back to the American Experiment Podcast! This week, Grace and Kathryn are joined by Bill Walsh to break down the latest Minnesota and national news.
First, Governor Walz is calling for a special session in the Minnesota Legislature—but with no details. Is it just a political show, or is there more to it? We dig in.
Next, Ilhan Omar makes headlines defending her reportedly seven-figure net worth (yes, a MILLIONAIRE on a "public servant's" salary...)
Then, we cover Minneapolis City Council member Jeremiah Ellison, son of Keith Ellison, who is headed to Harvard—leaving his constituents behind (but not his paycheck!) and even fellow council members frustrated.
Finally, we wrap up with an insightful interview with Michael Shellenberger, our Fall Briefing speaker, on the state of free speech in America.
