About How to Run for Office (And Get Away With It)

Before the slogans and the selfies and the campaign launch comes the part nobody tells you about the kitchen table conversation. Because when you run, your family runs to the long nights, the missed dinners, the strangers with opinions, it all becomes part of their world. So in this premiere episode, we're talking about what to do before you decide to run, how to bring your family into the decision early, what to ask, and how to know if everyone is ready for the ride. So grab your coffee, your campaign notebook, and maybe your family therapist and let's get into it.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
