Is Texas turning blue — or is it just wishful thinking? In our first full episode, we unpack the hype and history behind America’s reddest big state. From Beto’s near-win in 2018 to shifting demographics, viral campaigns, and massive PAC investments, we explore whether Texas is truly a battleground or still solidly red.We also ask: Can Gen Z tip the scales? What role does social media play in real voter turnout? And what’s at stake in the 2026 Senate race?Hosted by Jaysen & TrevorFollow us @thefilibusteredpod on InstagramListen, share, and stay Filibustered.

Hosted by college students Jaysen and Trevor, The Filibustered Podcast is where real political talk meets chaotic group chat energy. We break down national, state, and local issues with no press pass, no political pedigree — just curiosity, frustration, and a little hope.
From viral headlines and policy breakdowns to rants that go off-script, we’re here to ask the questions politicians avoid and say the things most people shout at the TV.
Because politics isn’t just for pundits — it affects our lives every single day. And we’re done pretending it doesn’t.
New episodes weekly (hopefully).
