Ten episodes ago, I gathered political operatives and consultants Marcus A. Roberts and Frank Spring and talked about the narratives of politics. Today, we continue in this vein, looking at the language used, the framings employed and the tropes weaponized in politics today. You can listen to Frank explaining why numbers don’t matter and it’s actually political malpractice to try and explain how you’re going to pay for stuff. You can listen to Marcus explaining to you why Marvel is wrong telling stories in the Multiverse and what that has to do with contemporary American politics. You can listen to me throwing out wild claims and asking stupid questions.
