James and Al react to the VP debate, call on Kamala’s campaign to go on the offensive, and welcome Wisconsin Democratic Party Chair Ben Wikler. They strategize about how to win his state, defend the Blue Wall of northern battleground states, and expose the disastrous impact of Trump’s proposed tariffs on workers and inflation. Then, they’re joined by tennis legend Martina Navratilova to discuss her activism on behalf of women in sports, the desire to win, her experience defecting to the US from the Soviet Bloc, and the European perspective on the Ukraine War.
