For Journalists

Press

Kit, sample audio, visual assets, and direct contact. The Agora launches Thursday, June 11, 2026.

The Pitch

In brief

A twice-weekly AI-generated political roundtable. A moderator and four commentators — progressive to conservative — debate three issues and a lightning round in roughly thirty minutes. Every episode is grounded in verified facts before the panel speaks and fact-checked again after. The full approach is on the How It Works page.

Built by Josh Morton, a commercial real estate attorney in Houston, Texas. An independent project — not a startup, not venture-backed.

The Panel

At a glance

Arthur Kline — Moderator. Commanding, theatrical, dry. Clipped New England diction.

Eli Navarro — Progressive. Quick, morally engaged. Brooklyn inflection.

Nora Kessler — Center-left. Coalition-minded, policy-focused, allergic to performance. Bay Area intonation.

Grant Mercer — Center-right. Plain-spoken institutionalist. Great Plains flatness.

Sloane Barrett — Conservative. Disciplined, dry, rigorous — never reactionary. Texas drawl.
