LZ Granderson: RFK is so incredibly compelling to a certain segment of people because people are seeking alternatives. He says the political duopoly has failed us and that we should be pretty judicious with who we actually listen to, but I don't think we should believe a lot of the things he's saying. LZ: This shows the Democratic Party has really left a lot of its base. And then you look at the Republicans and just how it'll be really interesting as we sort of have this Trump DeSantis showdown in Florida. It will be really interesting to see how that plays out.
EPISODE SIX: In this Episode, Mike & River are joined by Liz Wolfe from Reason. Liz has been deep into uncovering everything about Robert F. Kennedy's rise in the 2024 presidential election. We discuss his ascension, media censorship, where he's right about vaccines and where he goes way off the rails, why people are seeking alternative candidates, and if he's a viable candidate for the Democratic Party.
Featuring Mike Solana ,River Page, and Liz Wolfe
