Ep. 17 - Aug. 16, 2024 - With Kamala Harris jumping in the polls and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz on the ticket, have the fundamentals of the 2024 presidential race changed, or is this a temporary blip? The guys also talk about Harris' pivot to her approach to hecklers, Trump agreeing to a debate, and WAY more!

July 24, 2024 - The Goldner Brothers are BACK because some news is just too big to ignore! In a truly historic move, Joe Biden exits the 2024 Presidential race, immediately endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris.

Alex and Brandon talk through every step in this weird and unprecedented process, from Biden's disastrous debate in June to his defiant stance to stay in the race, then his decision to leave and the immediate coalescence from the Democratic Party around Harris.

Along the way, they need to convince the Senate Parliamentarian that the elements in the bill - $15/hr minimum wage, $1,400 checks, unemployment benefits, and more - are related enough to the budget to pass through Bernie Sanders' Senate Budget Committee, therefore avoiding a filibuster by Republicans! That, plus a COVID update, the unfolding disaster in Texas, voter suppression, working with other countries, and MORE on this week's pod!

Ep. 12 - Another fast week of politics as President Biden's agenda starts to roll, which wouldn't have been possible had Democrats not won two Senate seats in Georgia!
