Episode notes

The chapter emphasizes the importance of unity during a difficult political campaign, discussing the impact of inflammatory language and the need for civil discourse. The episode also features various sponsor ads offering products like essentials for packing and apparel, followed by insights from experts on public perception of political violence.

The assassination attempt on Donald Trump is part of a steady uptick in political — and increasingly partisan — violence in the United States. With a push toward unity from Trump and President Biden, this could be a moment to pull the nation back from the brink.

This episode was produced by Peter Balonon-Rosen and Amanda Lewellyn, edited by Matt Collette, fact-checked by Miles Bryan and Victoria Chamberlin, engineered by Patrick Boyd and Andrea Kristinsdotter, and hosted by Sean Rameswaram.
