Each week Angela Rye, award-winning television host, social justice advocate, lawyer, commentator and self-described “bringer of truth;” Tiffany Cross, television personality, political analyst and author; and Andrew Gillum, former mayor of Tallahassee, Florida, and fierce advocate for fair and just public policy reforms, will provide sharp political insights, navigate the intricate dance between past and present, and weave together a narrative of hope and empowerment for listeners across the country.

“Launching ‘Native Land Pod’ before one of the most consequential elections in our lifetime is our mandate,” said Rye. “Being able to co-host along with friends who have become family to talk about political and social issues from our perspective is an honor.

"The cable news industry has stubbornly refused to speak to the rising majority of America. That's where we come in,” said Cross. “I'm thrilled to join my co-hosts in informative discussions that speak authentically to listeners from Capitol Hill to corner offices, from cyphers on the block to the Sunday brunch crowd. We are your relatable political group chat where news is digestible and speaks directly to you."

“I’m excited to join Angela and Tiffany for some much-needed tough talk about our politics, our people and our collective work to reshape the way political conversations are had that ultimately inspires listeners to do the work that leads to our greater freedom and political liberation,” said Gillum. “Listeners can expect to be invited into our conversations and finally find a home where their lived experiences are reflected and where their ideas are validated. Welcome home.”

About Andrew Gillum
Andrew Gillum’s history-making political career began more than 20 years ago when he was elected to the Tallahassee City Commission at age 23—the youngest person elected in the city’s history. Elected to serve as the Mayor of Tallahassee in 2014, Gillum championed investments in early education and restorative justice programs, spearheaded the construction of a 20-megawatt solar farm, and contributed to Tallahassee being named as an All-America City, a top 30 City for entrepreneurs in America, and one of just 50 TechHire cities in the nation. After being sued by the gun lobby and defeating them in Court, Gillum created the Campaign to Defend Local Solutions, an effort to build awareness of the threat and help local officials fight back to protect their communities.

In 2018, Gillum became the first African American nominee for governor of a major party after defeating four better-funded candidates. Shattering all previous records, more than two million new midterm voters turned out in Florida in 2018, and Gillum came within 0.4% of victory with over 8 million votes cast— forcing the state’s first-ever gubernatorial recount.

For more than 15 years, Gillum worked at People for the American Way Foundation where he helped create Young People For, a leadership training program for progressive college students around the country, and established the Young Elected Officials Network, a network of progressive elected officials aged 35 and younger—consisting now of more than 1,000 members around the nation.

Following his historic run for governor, Gillum was honored as one of the EBONY Power 100 and served as a 2019 Resident Fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School Institute of Politics. He has also served as a political commentator for CNN and contributed to numerous other cable and network news outlets. He currently runs his own consultancy firm out of Tallahassee, FL, where he resides with his wife and their three children.
