Mrs. Frazzled Exposes Eric Swalwell | AOTP EP 87

Can social media reshape a political race? And what do voters really need to know before heading to the polls?

In this episode, Dara Starr Tucker sits down with Arielle Fodor (Mrs. Frazzled), a former educator turned political commentator, to break down the rapidly evolving California gubernatorial race.

We discuss the current state of the race and who the strongest candidates are

How California’s “top-two” primary system could lead to unexpected outcomes

The growing influence of independent content creators in political discourse

And the controversy surrounding Eric Swalwell, including allegations that have impacted his campaign and the role social media played in bringing attention to them

Arielle shares insight into her journey from classroom teacher to trusted online voice, and how she approaches responsibility, research, and impact in a digital age where information moves fast—and consequences move faster.

This is a conversation about power, accountability, media, and what it means to be an informed voter in 2026.
