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 106 - Walz's Fraud CZAR: A Day Late & A BILLION Short
Welcome back to the American Experiment Podcast!
Grace and Kathryn break down the latest Minnesota news, including Governor Walz appointing a so-called “fraud czar” but is it a day late and a billion dollars short?
They’re then joined by Bill Walsh, who Stops the Tape on Walz’s latest press conference. When asked to take responsibility for the fraud, Walz instead takes credit for planes running on time at MSP…
After that, Grace and Kathryn dive into Minneapolis Public Schools’ shocking policy proposal: if layoffs are ever needed, white teachers would be laid off first, strictly because of the color of their skin.
Then on the back half of the show, we feature an interview by American Experiment policy fellow David Zimmer with Judge John Tunheim, unpacking the conspiracies surrounding the Kennedy assassination. Judge Tunheim served as chair of the Assassination Records Review Board under President Clinton. The full interview can be found here.
