Hey folks,
Katie Phang—and I went live for another episode of Breaking Bread, and we got real. Not doomscrolling, not outrage bait—real life. Finding steadiness. Pocket-sized joy. The hard work of growth and accountability. Then we dug into young men, the GOP text dumps, and the Graham Platner mess. It’s honest, tense, and necessary.
[00:01:07] Checking in after a brutal stretch—why slowing down to breathe (and actually rest) might be the most radical act we’ve got.
[00:03:34] Flowers, black squirrels, and five-minute resets. Katie’s “Ansel Adams Fang” moment meets my power nap—what micro-rest teaches us about staying human in the chaos.
[00:06:47] Graham Platner’s tattoo and the Republican texts. What’s confirmed, why “boys will be boys” is a cop-out, and where growth stops being an excuse—especially mid-campaign.
[00:18:20] Standards and strategy. Can we hold our values, vet our candidates, and still win? The tension between urgency, caution, and what leadership should look like.
If you’re feeling the urgency like we are, support this work by becoming a paid subscriber. Endless Urgency runs on the belief that we deserve better—and that change starts with truth, clarity, and community. Help power this movement and ensure we keep building the media ecosystem we need.
