12/25/25 Water Cooler Chat

The Original Sin + Holiday Joy

Happy Holidays Everyone!

A while back, myself [Jalon D'na] and Joey Cade had a gab sesh and of course, Santa came up.

Cause With Me, He Always Comes Up.

Hi Mom! 👋🏽

Anyways, it was last Christmas where I gifted my Mama a trip to NYC [since she had never been] and we did have fun!

And she’s right, Dumbo SHOULD have a dumbo statue.

Hey Zohran Mamdani, I know you have a lot on your plate, but can you get that done?


My Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa, Festivus wish to you and yours is for next year to be full of fun, kindness, ramifications for anyone trying to cover up anyone in the Epstein files, fair and antiracist electoral maps, and a House and Senate fliparoo.

We deserve.


Anyways, we hope you guys are having an amazing and easeful holiday and break. We’ve been through so much this year.

Joey and I will be back with more podcasts and water coolers next year.

We can’t wait to show you what we’ve been cooking up.

Bye!

Get Pod Local: The Podcast (Season 2!) with Joey and Jalon

Joey and Jalon sit down with Politicians, Community Leaders, and movers and shakers making a difference. And almost every episode, the Dallas Mayor catches a stray. He deserves it. It’s fine. Episodes drop every Thursday!


GPL Presents: New Newsletter with Jalon Nichols

Every week, Jalon catches you up on what is going on out here, who is doing it, how does that impact your everyday life, and what everyone is saying about. We are based in Texas, so we have a lot of Texas news, but we cover the whole wide world. There is a LOT of stuff going on everyday, and no one can keep up with it all, but we attempt to….for you. (Clap for us).


GPL Presents: Organizers Corner w/ Joey Cade

Every Sunday night, Joey Cade, our Resident Precinct Chair, lays out our Call To Actions for the week. Because knowing what’s going on is one thing. But doing something about it is another. Let’s do both!


GPL Presents: Water Cooler with Jalon and Joey

GPL Presents: Daily Briefs with Jalon Nichols
