First of all, I'd go Liberalverse for this one, because there is so much fodder to be had in l!"Stephen"'s reaction to the Equalists :3
Jon and Stephen run a popular radio show that mocks news and politics. Stephen's ethnically Earth; Jon's half Earth, half Water, and could probably do a little Waterbending if you asked nicely; both of them grew up in Republic areas. Olivia grew up Water Tribe, then moved to Republic City to do comedy. John Oliver is ethnically Fire, and a direct descendant of members of the military who tried to take over the world, but he really is awfully sorry about that. Aasif's half Fire, half Water.
Jon keeps landing surprisingly serious interviews with high-ranking councilmembers. Tenzin refuses to pay it any attention for ages, but finally gives in, and their conversation runs so long that it pre-empts half of the next program.
Stephen is Deeply Conflicted a lot lately. He wants to throw his wholehearted support behind the Equalists and their wonderful anti-privilege movement...but on the other hand, the Avatar seems so nice! Also she's female and ethnically Water, not to mention her last incarnation was ethnically Air and the single survivor of genocide, and he can't figure out how many Oppression Olympics points that should earn her.
I can't decide if Jessica Williams should get to actually be the Avatar in this crossover, or just be Korra's childhood BFF.
