Ode to Cory Booker

In the premiere episode of Fear and Loathing in New Jersey, Gina Carson and Jason Planer react in real time to Senator Cory Booker’s record-breaking 25-hour Senate speech. From emotional resonance to political reckoning, they dissect the symbolic and historic significance of his stand, and how it lit a fire under a nation on the brink.

With a mix of righteous rage, Jersey pride, and unfiltered honesty, they reflect on everything from Trump’s chaos machine to the psychological toll of passive acceptance. What starts as political commentary turns into a full-blown call to action—and a celebration of the power of good trouble.

New Jersey is in the house, and this podcast isn’t backing down.
