Firewall with Bradley Tusk

How Low Does Mediocre Go?


Listen Later

Serious question: Do mediocre and average mean the same thing? Everybody Bradley asked told him no, that mediocre is worse, but he remains convinced they are the same. Plus, he cheers the federal court's ruling in favor of Epic Games in its lawsuit against Google over monopolistic behavior, outlines the philosophical dilemmas he has been wrestling with at synagogue and explains why Kamala Harris's position on guns is the blueprint for the pragmatic policies that a clear majority of Americans supports.

This episode was taped at P&T Knitwear at 180 Orchard Street — New York City’s only free podcast recording studio.
