On today’s episode we’ll be covering current events, brushing up on some political trivia, and sharing our “fish out of water” stories about being a progressive in a conservative culture. And last but not least, we have a very, very special guest to kick off the inaugural episode, the wonderful and talented Jess Piper.
Jess is a mother to five and grandmother to three and lives on a small farm on the Missouri/Iowa border. She was born and raised in rural America. She received degrees in English and Teaching from the University of Arkansas and was an American Literature teacher for 16 years. After the 2016 election of Trump, Jess became politically active. Jess ran for office in 2022 for State Representative in HD1 in Northwest Missouri. She didn’t win the sit but won over rural America and used the experience to organize progressives in rural Missouri. Jess is the Executive Director for Blue Missouri and hosts a weekly podcast called “Dirt Road Democrat” which can be found wherever you listen to podcasts.
