February 12, 2021 Every District's Nicole Hobbs Joins, Impeachment Latest
Fans of the show will remember how long Joe and Alex have discussed the issues the Democratic Party has had with winning critical statewide elections. There's no one better to talk about what we need to do to improve than Nicole Hobbs, co-founder of Every District.
Nicole talks about three key improvements Every District is trying to make at the grassroots level, and Joe apologizes for inventing the "sky-is-falling" fundraising email in the Dean campaign. Plus, some fairly dire projections for the future of Congress based on redistricting, population trends and more... and what we can all do about it.
Support Nicole and Every District at @Every_District and everydistrict.us.
Then, Joe and Alex catch up on the latest impeachment news. What is the fallout here even though the Republicans are (willfully) unmoved by the Democrats' moving testimonies?

February 05, 2021 Bipartisanship, The Party of QAnon, A Race We Need To Win Now
First up this week, President Biden took a meeting with GOP Senators who want to compromise on the COVID relief package, but he seems to want to press forward with or without them. Who wins in the battle to look bipartisan — and is that what voters want?
Then, Marjorie Taylor Greene takes over our show as she has almost everything else, as Joe and Alex dig into the strategy behind the Republicans’ decision on whether to keep the freshman Congresswoman on the Education Committee. (We taped before a vote was finalized.)
Furthermore, Democrats launched a $500k ad buy specifically tying House GOP members to QAnon… in February of 2021, about as far as possible away from the 2022 midterms. Does Joe like this new-look aggressive Democratic media strategy?
Plus, a new segment where Joe and Alex spotlight local races of great consequence begins this week -- there's a special election in the Virginia state legislature. Donate to Laurie Buchwald right here: https://www.buchwaldforsenate.com/

January 29, 2021 GOP woes, Redistricting, Trippi on Democratization of Stock Market/Dean Camp.
What better way to kick off Joe Biden's presidency than to have Republicans abandon their consciences before impeaching Donald Trump a second time! What's the fallout of the Republicans being forced to cling to Trump even after his loss?
Then, the GOP has a massive advantage for the next decade due to their control over state legislatures. How we got here, and what we do about it.
Finally, there aren't many people more equipped to discuss the democratization of the flow of money online than Joe Trippi. He goes into how the Dean campaign started raising money online, how it has parallels to the GameStop situation, and whether it's all worth it in the end.

January 22, 2021 The First Podcast of the Biden Administration!
We made it! Joe Biden is president. Joe and Alex talk about our 46th president's inaugural speech, and if "unity" is possible -- and why Joe Biden is the man to bring us closer to a healthier brand of politics than what we're accustomed to. (ie, one where the Republicans don't announce Articles of Impeachment on Day One.
Then, how do the Democrats handle the power struggle in the Senate as the Republicans fight to hold on to some influence, and is it possible they could *gain* in 2022 instead of losing ground back?
Finally, even though Donald Trump is out... how are we feeling about the way things are headed more generally?

January 15, 2021 One. More. Week. Impeachment, DNC, and Biden's First Moves
What a ridiculous month. Joe and Alex are here to help you make sense of it all.
First, the House has impeached the president for a second time, but the trial likely won't begin until Pres. Biden (that looks nice) is in office. What are the endgames for McConnell and the Republicans, and how does Biden want this to go?
Then, Joe has said for years Trump would never truly go away. Well... what about now? This time next week, he'll be a disgraced former president without the ability to tweet. How does he maintain a hold on half the country -- or does he?
Then, Jaime Harrison is expected to lead the DNC. What does this mean for the Democrats, a party that often is too concerned with winning federal elections and not the local, state-level ones that Republicans have wisely focused on for decades?

January 08, 2021 Capitol Insurrection, Senate Majority, AG Merrick Garland
A lot has happened since Joe and Alex last convened.
First, we address the violence incited by the president yesterday at the US Capitol, and how members of both parties responded -- and what it means from here. Could the GOP turn towards a new, less destructive agenda?
Then, a reminder that the Democrats won BOTH runoffs in Georgia and the Senate Majority. What are the lessons from this stunning victory, and how does a Democratic Senate potentially guide Joe Biden's choices of where to start putting the country back together?
Next, Pres.-Elect Biden nominated Merrick Garland for Attorney General, not (as we had hoped) Doug Jones. What does this final major appointment mean, and, most critically, how will Joe Biden govern?

December 18, 2020 McConnell Accepts Reality, Pete to Transportation, Winning Back Rurals
Joe and Alex quickly give us an update on early returns from GA -- almost 1 million votes are in! -- and what the early voting patterns mean (if anything). Nate Cohn's Twitter thread is linked here.
Next, Mitch McConnell said it was time for the GOP to "turn the page" and accept President-Elect Biden as, well, President-Elect. Why now? How much weight does the relationship between Biden and McConnell play into this decision?
Plus, what does it mean for actual governance -- and for 2022 Senate races?
Then, Pete Buttigieg looks to be our next Secretary of Transportation. What does Joe make of this choice -- of all the departments, why Transportation? And what does this mean for the future of the Democratic party, now that hardly any of the so-called "stars" have been elevated to big Cabinet posts?
Lastly, an audience question from a listener in South Dakota asks when the Democrats will get their act together and re-invest in rural states.

December 11, 2020 Missed Debate Opportunities, Does Electoral College End The Nightmare?
Another week closer to the Senate runoffs -- another week where the Republicans are fighting each other, even after Trump went down to rally the faithful for the two candidates. What was the fallout? What is the likelihood one of the candidates on either side could run ahead of the other? And could Perdue take a hit for choosing to let Ossoff debate an empty podium?
Next, the Electoral College will formally make Joe Biden the next president on Dec. 14 (Monday). Could that finally put a nail in this strange parallel universe Trump and his cohorts are inhabiting?
Then, a listener question about why Democrats can't compete with the slogans and simple messaging of the Republicans.
Finally, Joe and Alex address some rumors about a potential Cabinet appointment close to their hearts.

December 04, 2020 Big GA Weekend On Tap, Cabinet Picks, Trump 2024?
Joe and Alex are back to break down the wild weekend ahead in Georgia, where the president plans to hold rallies for the Republican Senate candidates — all while decrying the electoral process.
Then, is it true Trump may be planning an announcement for a campaign in 2024? What’s the future of every other GOP politician of note given that possibility?
Finally, what does Joe make of the Biden Cabinet thus far, and what do the announcements signal about the incoming administration?

November 20, 2020 Ga. Senate Update, Dems' Looming Mega-Problem, Biden's Most Important Appt.
First, a listener question so good we did it off the top -- where should the party (and donors) put their resources moving forward?
Then, an update on the GA Senate races. Taking all polls with a grain of salt, what is Joe seeing from the early data? What is Trump's role in the race? What would he advise Trump to do?
Next, the transition to Joe Biden's presidency is being stonewalled by an angry Trump administration. What should Biden be doing? Is there anything he should be doing differently, politically speaking?
Lastly, which party is in more trouble going forward, the Trump-less (or Trump-tethered) GOP, or the Democrats, who face steep odds to hold the House and Senate by 2022? Joe diagnoses the massive problem the Democrats face, and what we can all do to stop it from hitting us.
