Orange is the new black; is TikTok the new news?

Welcome to our new podcast, The Ask, where we focus on turning questions into action. On our first episode, Jasmine and Yochi sit down with TikTok superstar V Spehar, a former caterer whose news-focused posts reach nearly 3 million people, about why huge numbers of young Americans are turning to TikTok for their news, why conservatives trust a self-described "purple haired lesbian" more than the mainstream media, and why progressives should do everything they can to prevent the government from banning TikTok.
