Fuller and his guests — including members of Congress, candidates involved in races, partisan operatives, and other reporters — will explore topics including gerrymandering, the shift toward women in the Democratic Party, Nancy Pelosi's influence on races, and Donald Trump’s effect in the midterms and the parties overall. He will drill down on one specific Congressional race each episode and interview the candidates in those races.

episode The (Democratic) Future is Female artwork

The (Democratic) Future is Female

This election day, there will be over 250 women on the ballot running for the House and Senate, and after the midterms, there’s likely to be more women in office than ever before. It seems Donald Trump has awoken a female majority that is outraged by the President's words and actions. And if there is a Democratic wave, it’s women who will have likely caused it. This episode, which is the fourth in a four-part series on the midterm elections, features interviews with Rep. Cheri Bustos (R-Ill.), Politico reporter Heather Caygle, Cook Political Report editor Dave Wasserman, Politico Reporter Rachael Bade, HuffPost polling editor Ariel Edwards-Levy, Rep. Dave Brat (R-Va.), and Democratic congressional candidate Abigail Spanberger.  The Wave is produced by The Podglomerate. *** This show is a part of the Podglomerate network, a company that produces, distributes, and monetizes podcasts.

episode The Trump Effect artwork

The Trump Effect

We explore the effect Donald Trump is having on the midterm elections, the realignment of the parties, and Congress. With Republicans looking to retain the House, we look at how Republicans are navigating questions about Trump and how the President is shifting certain districts into Democratic control. This episode, which is the third in a four-part series on the midterm elections, features interviews with Rep. Eric Swalwell, Rep. Mark Meadows, Politico reporter Jake Sherman, DCCC national press secretary Tyler Law, DCCC Communications Director Meredith Kelly, Guardian reporter Ben Jacobs, former RNC communications director Doug Heye, Politico Reporter Daniel Strauss, HuffPost Reporter Arthur Delaney, Rep. Leonard Lance, and Congressional Candidate Tom Malinowski.  The Wave is produced by The Podglomerate. *** This show is a part of the Podglomerate network, a company that produces, distributes, and monetizes podcasts.

episode The Pelosi Question artwork

The Pelosi Question

We explore the question of Nancy Pelosi as the leader of House Democrats. With Democrats looking likely to take back the House, we look at the potential problems she may face in resuming her position as the only woman to ever serve as Speaker of the House. We also explore the history of the “Fire Pelosi” campaign — from its roots at the Republican National Committee in 2010 to the most recent examples of Republicans using questions about Pelosi in 2018 — and examine whether she is still the potent campaign issue Republicans believe her to be. This episode, which is the second in a four-part series on the midterm elections, features interviews with former RNC communications director Doug Heye, Pelosi deputy chief of staff Drew Hammill, Rep. Tim Ryan, Rep. Eric Swalwell, Politico reporter Heather Caygle, Washington Examiner reporter Laura Barron-Lopez, Rep. Conor Lamb, and Rep. Keith Rothfus.  The Wave is produced by The Podglomerate.  *** This show is a part of the Podglomerate network, a company that produces, distributes, and monetizes podcasts.

episode Gerrymandering artwork

Gerrymandering

We explore how gerrymandering might limit Democratic pick ups in the House, and we discuss how Republicans targeted state legislatures in 2010 in order to draw better maps for the GOP. We attempt to answer how much of the GOP’s seat advantage is geography, and how much is gerrymandering. This episode, which is the first in a four-part series on the midterm elections, features interviews with Dave Daley, Josh Huder Tyler Law, Doug Heye, Dave Wasserman, Betsy Rader, and Rep. David Joyce. The Wave is produced by The Podglomerate. *** This show is a part of the Podglomerate network, a company that produces, distributes, and monetizes podcasts.

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.
