By Pocket Podcast Network

avocadotoast is a podcast for and by young people to increase political literacy and awareness among young Millenials and members of Generation Z. Each episode is split between the weekly news and a socio-political political topic the hosts explain and discuss around. The hosts offer varying levels of expertise of the subjects they choose, and sometimes have guests around their age to discuss topics that are either relevant to their lives, or that they might have expertise in.

69: Jewish (Dis)loyalty

Had to cut out like 20% of the episode because it was just Jessi screaming because a spider fell onto their mic and they live alone.

Also it's episode 69....nice...!

This episode was partly inspired by Trump's comments last week and a conversation on antisemitism Jessi had this week.

Ep 50 Bruh!!!!!!!

Ep 50 Bruh!!!!!!!

WE DID IT BiNCH !!!
In this ep Jessi and Nicole dump more news on the listeners than a Texan pipeline dumping jet fuel into the Indiana River (that'll make more sense once you listen to the ep, promise). And at the risk of sounding click-baity, we've got a pretty big and important announcement for all our lovely listeners so make sure you slam that mf play button (the announcement is right at the beginning because we here at avocadotoast believe in instant gratification, as it is in our millenial/centennial nature that we simply cannot escape)

Enjoy!
