If you're not already, you should be listening to Pod Save America. It's hosted by four former aides to President Barack Obama--Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, Tommy Vietor, and Dan Pheiffer.
The podcasts run three days a week, including Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Monday's pod features Favreau, Lovett and Vietor. Wednesday's pod is a question and answer session from viewers. And the Thursday pod features Favreau and Pheiffer.
They engage in discussion about democratic politics and the batshit craziness that is the Trumo administration, breaking down the day's news and the complete insanity of it all, with ideas and concrete ways to fight it.
But it's not just all Trump all the time. They talks about the real issues we're facing and what needs to be done about them. And sometimes they just chat about fun things, like their Games of Thrones obsession, if you're into that kind of thing.
They've interviewed almost every 2020 Democratic presidential candidates, as well as well as journalists, AOC, and many Democratic senators and representatives. This past week they interviewed Stacey Abrams about her new voter protection initiative, and on August 14, they did a deep dive poll in Wisconsin to take the temperature of voters there to find the areas where we need to hit hard so we can win.
They even have a website called Vote Save America where you can pledge to vote in the next election, find out if you're registered to vote, and if for some reason you're not, you can register right there on the site. You can also donate to a fund that will help whoever gets the Democratic nomination for president. And you can find out about the most important state races.
