The Man Who Could Flip Mississippi — And the Senator Too Scared to Face Him | At Our Table We talk with Scott Colom about what it takes to fight for a place others have written off. A seventh-generation Mississippian and district attorney, he explains how public service, criminal justice reform, and listening to voters shaped his run for the U.S. Senate. The conversation draws a sharp contrast between politics rooted in trust and leadership that disappears from public view. We also talk about tariffs, rural investment, voting rights, and why campaigns are won by listening and delivering for people who feel ignored by both parties. 00:00:00 – Introducing Scott Colom 00:01:51 – Growing Up in Columbus, Mississippi 00:04:13 – A Family Built for Public Service 00:06:59 – Teaching in Guyana & Working the Rwanda Tribunal 00:09:11 – Mississippi Is Not a Deep Red State 00:11:51 – Cindy Hyde-Smith Hasn't Done a Town Hall in Six Years 00:16:15 – How to Build Trust on the Campaign Trail 00:20:15 – A Vision for Mississippi's Next Ten Years 00:22:34 – Can a Democrat Win Statewide in Mississippi? 00:26:27 – The Supreme Court's Attack on Voting Rights 00:29:23 – She Blocked His Federal Judgeship — Now He's Running Against Her 00:32:11 – What People Get Wrong About Mississippi 00:34:02 – The Future of the Democratic Party Is in the South 00:35:21 – Sit Your Ass Down Award 00:36:44 – Closing Remarks SUBSCRIBE & FOLLOW: 🔔 Subscribe to At Our Table on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AtOurTablePodcast 📩 Newsletter: https://jaimeharrison.substack.com 🎙️ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/at-our-table-with-jaime-harrison/id1826169382 🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2qSQSDL4yDCGVsKT3fFedA 🌐 Website: https://www.aotpodcast.com FOLLOW JAIME HARRISON: Instagram: https://instagram.com/HarrisonJaime Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/HarrisonJaime Threads: https://threads.net/@harrisonjaime FOLLOW AT OUR TABLE: Instagram: https://instagram.com/AtOurTableShow Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/AtOurTableShow Threads: https://threads.net/@atourtableshow TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@At.Our.Table Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/atourtable.bsky.social FOLLOW SCOTT COLOM: YouTube: http://youtube.com/@Scott_Colom TikTok: tiktok.com/@scott.colom Instagram: http://instagram.com/scott_colom Facebook: http://facebook.com/ColomForSenate Twitter/X: http://x.com/scott_colom #AtOurTable #JaimeHarrison #Democrats #Mississippi #ScottColom #DemocraticParty #uspolitics #Hyde-Smith #2026elections #ColomForSenate #MississippiSenate #FlipMississippi #SouthernDemocrats https://youtu.be/wSHeh8SSEUg
