  • A.B. Stoddard: Focus Only on Winning

    A.B. Stoddard: Focus Only on Winning
    Jul 25 2024
    Nancy Pelosi has amassed power through persuasion, and she had the nerve to push a sitting president off the ticket because she prioritized victory. Meanwhile, Kamala's veep pick is key to extending the new generation message—and wouldn't choosing Josh Shapiro be a good way to show she's not on the side of the flag-burning Hamasniks? Plus, mixed emotions for Joe Biden, and jealous Trump is back to being a total d**k. A.B. Stoddard joins Tim Miller.

    show notes:

    Rick Perlstein: The Alternative Is Apocalyptic
    Jul 24 2024
    The modern conservative movement has a built-in ratcheting-up mechanism, so that even when Republicans win, they act like they're losing and the country is on the verge of collapse. Even Democrats long for the days of responsible, Main Street conservatives. But today's GOP is racing headlong into authoritarianism, and the fever is not going to break until we defeat it. Rick Perlstein joins Tim Miller.

    show notes:

    Rick on Project 2025
    Rick on abortion
    Rick on the "autoritarian ratchet"

  • Sam Stein and Ron Brownstein: Now We're Talking

    Sam Stein and Ron Brownstein: Now We're Talking
    Jul 23 2024
    We may have been conditioned to just accept candidates who share their meandering thoughts or end sentences with 'anyway.' But Kamala Harris is delivering a big upgrade, and showing how a good political speech gets done. Meanwhile, what would Kamala's winning coalition—and her path to 270—look like? Plus, Trump may be having some buyer's remorse over JD Vance. Ron Brownstein and Sam Stein join Tim Miller.

    show notes:

    Ron's piece on Kamala's path to 270
    Sam's piece on how the Dems got their shit together
    Ron's book, "Rock Me on the Water"

The podcast that got me to like Podcasts

Political discussion in GOOD FAITH.

I may not always agree with Charlie, but his sincere discussion on all of the day's latest topics help me stay up to date with the latest news and bring a logical and rational perspective to all of it. His perspectives along with many of his guests bring a point of view that tries to take a step back and look at the overall picture and how current events compare and contrast with history and the basic principles of democracy. Highly recommended.

Reasoned Witness Perspective

This interview was so helpful in putting the listener in that kibbutz on the day of the attack. Mona barely had to ask questions because the storyteller was a fellow journalist. I benefited from his reasoned explanations of the now and the potential future for the government and the region.
