Back to the Races: Morgan vs. Douglas III
2022/06/24
This week, we sit down with the most amazing woman ever to run in Senate district 34, Can We Fix It's very own, Jennifer "The Volpinator" Douglas. We discuss her priorities once elected, why she blows the competition Elaine Morgan out of the water, and what she would do if she were ever the Dictator of Rhode Island. This episode is a little late, but it's absolutely worth your time. Pour yourself a glass of champagne and tune in to Can We Fix It.
F*ck Your Thoughts and Prayers
2022/05/27
This week's episode hits a little different. There are no jokes, no co-host, no witty banter. The episode is shorter than most, and sadder. This week, Moira talks candidly about how hard it is to live in a country that cares more about the rights of gun owners than it does the rights of children to go to school without fear. This week is about reminding ourselves and our listeners that it doesn't HAVE to be this way, but rather, living in a country with a mass shooting event every week is a distinct choice that is being made. This week, we don't ask for subscribers or patrons or for you to testify at the Statehouse…but rather this week our question is "How?" How do we carry on waking up, packing our lunches, and heading off to work knowing that we as a society have decided that 19 dead kids is just "business as usual?" Unfortunately, we have no answers for you, but you should tune in anyway.
Nothing But Dessert
2022/05/20
This week we have a bunch of delicious political dessert stories so we hope you saved room. We talk about the gubernatorial race, the Democratic party trying to fundraise off of Roe V. Wade and of course, the WPRI investigation into Rep. Carlos Tobon. Tune in to catch up on all the delicious details in this week's Can We Fix It.
Back to the Races, District 62
2022/04/29
This week Jen and Moira sat down with General Assembly candidate, Kinverly Dicupe.

Safe Sites
2022/04/22
This week Jen and Moira are joined by Lisa Peterson COO of Victa, an organization paving the way for mental health and drug rehabilitation services. They discuss budget values, the data around harm reduction locations, and why this is EVERYONE'S problem. Tune in for a powerful, yet still funny episode about why we should ALL care about harm reduction.
Are You Big Mad?
2022/04/01
This episode Moira and Jen circle back to the people they made BIG mad last week. A few apologies are doled out and they both admit to being wrong about a few things (don't get used to it). They also break out the tin foil hats to talk about whether our Governor and the head of ILO group are the same person and whether one or both of them is going to jail. Tune in for a wild ride this week.
Can We Fix It: Reverse Psychology Republican
2022/03/18

Working Women
2022/01/28
This week Jen and Moira cover a wide range. Starting with women in the work-froce. With Dr. Alexander Scott resigning, it's worth having a conversation about what women can be expected to tolerate in the American workforce and why they shouldn't have to. They also cover Dan dan the forgettable man, and his latest stupid blunder and check in on the houselessness crisis (hint: it's not going great). Tune in, pour a drink, and find out what we're pissed about this week.
Are You High??
2022/01/21

This is an episode you are not going to want to miss.
Dessert Served First
2022/01/14
This week, Moira and Jen had a lot of political dessert to catch up on so we served it first. We cover everything from twitter beef to Session floor fights and so much more.
