By Livia Follet and Ava Slocum | Two weeks before the election, with early voting already ongoing in a majority of U.S. states, Vice President Kamala Harris is making her way through interviews, explaining her positions and taking tough questions on her validity as a candidate, abortion rights, the Supreme Court and the preservation of democracy.

We have listened and read through five of these tough interviews—Alex Cooper’s podcast Call Her Daddy; Charlamagne Tha God’s The Breakfast Club podcast; the Univision Town Hall; a Fox News interview with Bret Baier; and Howard Stern’s show—so you don’t have to.

Explore essays, a brand-new podcast, videos and more from some of your most loved [or soon to be!] influencers and writers, brought to you by Ms., DoSomething, the nonprofit that helps make volunteerism “cool,” and The Anthem Awards, the social impact arm of The Webbys.)

Listen to the latest Ms. Studios podcast The Z Factor: Gen Z's Voice & Vote — now on Apple Podcasts + Spotify.

In our opening episode, I want to level-set by learning a bit about Generation Z as a whole. What are we thinking about? What do we care about? And I thought we’d dive into that with some good old-fashioned polling. I’m thrilled to welcome Anil Cacodcar, the student chair of the Harvard Public Opinion Project, which has been conducting the leading biannual poll of young Americans in the country for over two decades.

We hope you'll listen, subscribe, rate and review today!
