Shownotes Transcript

Host Reed Galen is joined by author, journalist, and political analyst, David Masciotra. They discuss the rise of exurbia as a haven for those seeking to escape progressive culture and diversity along with as a breeding ground for the radical right-wing insurgency. Plus how the collapse of community and local media prevalent in exurban areas goes hand-in-hand with the erosion of our nation’s democracy. For more on these topics, be sure to pick up David Masciotra’s new book, Exurbia Now: The Battleground of American Democracy, available wherever fine books are sold.
