About this listen

The Profoundly Unserious Podcast is your weekly dose of political clarity in a world that feels chaotic – delivered with sharp analysis, humor and cultural awareness by Morgan.

Each episode, Morgan cuts through the noise to break down the news stories that actually impact people's lives, the political narratives shaping the moment and the civic issues that people seek clarity on. It's news breakdowns without the panic, political education without the condescension and commentary that actually explains why things matter.

And because politics never exists in a vacuum, Morgan brings in the cultural context and social dynamics that reveal the bigger picture.

Informative, funny, culturally grounded and unapologetically real – this is news and politics explained with clarity, honesty and an appropriate level of unseriousness.

  • Introduction and Patriotism
    Nov 16 2025

    In the very first episode of The Profoundly Unserious Podcast, Morgan opens the door to her inner world—unfiltered, long-form, and free from the chaos of the Clock App. She shares why she created this space, the experiences and education that shape her perspective, and how this podcast ties into her Texas Empowerment Project and her work in political education.

    Morgan talks candidly about growing up in Alabama, navigating race and identity in mixed environments, and how her background in public relations and African American Studies informs the way she breaks down politics and media literacy today. She dives into the concept of patriotism—what it really means, why the right has co-opted it, and why she believes reclaiming it is necessary if we want to build a future that actually serves people.

    This episode explores:

    • Why Black communities—especially Black women and Black queer folks—embody a uniquely powerful form of patriotism
    • How the language we use shapes political narratives
    • Why centering human rights matters, even when it comes to holding MAGA accountable
    • The distinction between punishment and accountability
    • How community, media literacy, and political clarity can push Texas and the country forward

    It’s honest, thoughtful, a little chaotic (Sagittarius + ADHD energy in full force), and the perfect introduction to a podcast built on curiosity, empowerment, and the occasional side quest.

    Welcome to Morgan’s brain. Let’s get into it.
