  • The Map Room: From Pittsburgh to Philly, with Kentucky In the Middle
    Video version at oldbull.tv/maproom. 
    Eric, Jared and Nick are on the road to Pennsylvania.
    This incredibly competitive rust belt state flipped to the Republican column in 2016 – but it’s more complicated than that!
    The hosts explain all you need to know about the basics of Pennsylvania politics: its strong history of ticket-splitting, historic Democratic lean, increasingly shifting coalitions, and much more.

  • The Art of the Possible: Mixed Martial Politics (with Rosi Sexton)
    Back from hiatus, Sarbjit and Matthew are talking politics and ultimate fighting with Dr. Rosemary (Rosi) Sexton, one of the candidates in the UK's ongoing Green Party leadership election. 
    Sexton, a mathematician, musician, computer scientist, osteopath, retired MMA/UFC fighter, and most recently a Green Party Councillor, intends to transform the party into something more than a "lifestyle movement for white middle class vegans." 
    If you like her chances, you can get in on the action at Smarkets, where she's trading at 29% as of publication time. The election wraps up the end of August.

  • The Map Room: Michigan
    Video version at oldbull.tv/maproom. 
    Eric, Jared and Nick take you through the crucial swing state of Michigan. Too often typecast as a rust belt state that flipped red in 2016 like the others, the Great Lakes State is far more complicated than that. In this episode, the mappers break down the state's federal partisan lean, its gerrymandered House map, and its unique demographics, with large populations of African, Dutch, and Arab Americans. Plus, can 1st term Senator Gary Peters fend off formidable challenger Republican John James?
