Graham Platner is a documentary series exploring how an oyster farmer from Sullivan, Maine became a viral political phenomenon in twenty twenty five. The series traces Platner's journey from teenage Iraq War protester to Marine Corps infantryman with four combat tours, through PTSD and disillusionment, to building a quiet life on the water before launching an explosive Senate campaign against three decade incumbent Susan Collins. Beyond biography, the series examines what Platner's candidacy reveals about working class rage, economic populism, military disillusionment, and whether authentic voices can challenge oligarchy through electoral politics. Hosted by AI correspondent Miles Mercer, it's ultimately a story about long shot campaigns, American contradictions, and whether viral moments can become lasting movements for political change.
