The Updraft

The Updraft Trailer

The Updraft is a weekly, action-oriented podcast for people who care about what’s happening in the world but don’t know what to do about it. Hosted by former Capitol Hill staffer and George Washington University professor Casey Burgat, the show focuses on how public work actually gets done—and what you can do to help. Some episodes are about politics. Many aren’t. All are about action. The Updraft wants you off your phone and back into the real world.
