Why Harris Can't Close the Sale Oct 21, 2024

Show notes

There's never been a race this close, according to the polling, and the question is why. The answers we offer have to do with which candidate is bringing the "joy" (it ain't Harris) and which candidate is throwing around 14 different messages hoping enough will stick with enough swing voters to drag the ticket across the finish line (it ain't Trump). Give a listen.

Biden vs. Harris Oct 10, 2024

In this, the last podcast of the week, we ask: What's going on between the president and the vice president? Is he targeting her? Is he trying to upstage her? Is he trying to humiliate her? Or does he even know what he's doing? And what exactly is she doing? Is she really as bad at this candidate stuff as she appears? And what's happening at CBS? Give a listen.

The disgusting displays of pro-terror masked goons marauding through New York City's streets brings to mind the question of who exactly is going to stand up to these monsters—and praises those who do. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris goes on 60 Minutes and helps explain why she's not running away with this race, while JD Vance comes up with a brilliant formulation. Give a listen.
