    In this episode, Paige is joined by Ishaan Srivastava, a 19-year-old political activist and host of The Ishaan S. Show, to talk about how young people are engaging with politics right now.

The conversation explores the evolving role of political media, the challenge of breaking through Gen Z apathy, and why affordability and representation are central issues for younger voters.
