Jon and New York Times columnist Ezra Klein, host of The Ezra Klein Show, talk through what we know about how Democrats started to lose working-class and lower-information voters—even before 2024—how social media and interest groups drive those divides, why blue states and cities shifted right, and what progressives can do to tackle the affordability crisis.

Introducing First Look At Trump's Second Term from Pod Save America.
Follow the show: Pod Save America
Trump begins staffing top roles in his second administration with loyalists and sycophants—and demands that the senators running for majority leader agree to embrace a process that would allow him to appoint whoever he wants without Senate confirmation. Jon, Lovett, and Tommy discuss whether Trump's opening moves are as chilling as we thought they'd be, what we do and don't know about his second-term plans, and how he might pursue revenge on his opponents. Then, Tommy speaks with New York Congressman Pat Ryan, who hung on in a tough district, about the lessons the Democratic Party needs to learn in order to win.

Introducing Where We Go From Here from Offline with Jon Favreau.
Follow the show: Offline with Jon Favreau
Yeah, rough week. Jon and Max reckon with Tuesday’s result and break down how Donald Trump — once again — was able to grow his coalition. They dissect how Trump won despite his very online campaign, not because of it — and why that may be cause for hope. Then they share their own experience knocking doors in swing states, talk about the role misinformation and foreign interference played in the election, and return to Offline’s most important question: How can we make democracy work in our current information environment? Plus, Max offers up what may be the only fun question about the next four years. How long will it be before Donald Trump publicly and nationally humiliates Elon Musk?

It’s no secret the biggest news of the week is Tuesday’s election results. Donald Trump won Wisconsin and enough electoral college votes to earn a second term in the White House. So how are Wisconsinites feeling about our state’s role in the process and what does a GOP win mean for Madison? This week, City Cast Madison host Bianca Martin and executive producer Hayley Sperling are joined by WTMJ Radio and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s Kristin Brey to dive into these questions and more.
