Ballot with Patrick Gutfield - Where Politics Meets Pop Culture

In this episode, we take a deep dive into the latest political developments, including Donald Trump's resounding victory in the Iowa caucuses and Ron DeSantis' OK-ish second-place finish. We also discuss Vivek Ramaswamy's surprising campaign suspension and endorsement of Trump, as well as Nikki Haley's determination to make the Republican primary a two-person race.

Also Joe Biden needs you to write him in next week in New Hampshire, if that's your thing.

Come for the sass, stay for the sanity—and blame the A.I. for the jokes that don’t land.
