<p>On July 3, Nancy Pelosi changed the course of the current presidential campaign and the country. It took about three minutes. How did that happen? How did the former speaker of the House have the power, moxie and leverage to force Biden from the race, elevate Kamala Harris and then deny she had her hand on the controls. It is all about how political power is wielded. And Pelosi biographer Molly Ball tells us how it was done. Her book “Pelosi’’ is the handbook for understanding the most powerful woman in American political history. </p>

Pelosi and Power - Molly Ball

Conflict of Interest is a podcast about the world, through a discerning lens of journalism, politics and above all Vermont. Kevin Ellis goes against the grain of today’s politics and celebrity culture to talk about the massive change all around us and how the world actually works. You will hear from Kevin’s Vermont neighbors AND national voices on difficult issues. Vermont is becoming, or always has been, a place, a real place. We are not interested in the Vermont of the tourist guides. We are not going to talk to Ben and Jerry’s ice cream. We will talk to them about what it is like to sell the company and do something new - and the frustrations, fear and uncertainty that comes with changing your life. Part interview, part history lesson about stuff you won’t see or hear on CNN or NPR.
