Politics + Media 101
American politics is fast moving and caught up in social media and the 24 hour news cycle. This political podcast cuts through the noise and focuses on what matters, the nuts and bolts of policy, how Congress works, and how elections are won. Justin and John sit down every Tuesday and Thursday to discuss what is happening in Washington, D.C. and international affairs with leading Democrats and Republicans from Congress, members of the media, and think tanks. If you want to know what’s going on behind the scenes in a non-partisan way, this is the show for you.
