"If delivery counts, Vance wins. If honesty counts, Walz wins."
The VP presidential debate this week appeared more substantive, and certainly more civil, than anything we've seen lately, but does it really matter? And do new polls reflect the performances. Meanwhile, Hurricane Helene has carved a swathe through southern states, leaving at least 120 dead and billions of dollars of damage in her wake. Also discussing the latest from Israel, Jack Smith's case against Donald Trump, the dockworkers strike, and latest from the campaign trail.

"We're not going to spread it around with handouts, we're going to spread it around with opportunity."
Kamala Harris has laid out her economic plans on the campaign trail this week, looking toward investment and manufacturing, as Donald Trump lurches from crisis to crisis. But first, the leaders of Japan, India, and Australia have met with Joe Biden in Washington to discuss tensions with China in the Indo-Pacific. Also discussing Israel's assault on Lebanon, the death of Marcellus Williams, avoiding government shutdown, and Republican efforts to confuse the vote in November.

"What do they say in the Bible? You reap as you sow?"
A second alleged assassination attempt on Donald Trump barely raises eyebrows this week but not everything surrounding Trump is so harmless. Residents of Springfield, Ohio, have found themselves under siege by bomb threats and neo-Nazis following Trump's claims of Haitian immigrants in the town taking and eating people's pets. Meanwhile, in a move that sounds straight out of a conspiracy theory, Mossad have targeted Hezbollah's communication network with explosives hidden inside pagers and radios as tensions reach new heights in the Middle East. Also discussing the potential for a government shutdown, IVF, rate cuts, and a disappointing endorsement rejection for Kamala Harris.

"She acted more like a president than anyone I've seen since Obama."
Baby executions, pets being eaten, a failing nation, Donald Trump's vision of America contrasted sharply with Kamala Harris' sense of optimism and forethought in this week's presidential debate. Ed and Sean break down some of the issues discussed, as well as a big time endorsement for Harris, sentencing in Donald Trump's fraud case being pushed past the election, Russia's influence on the rightwing media sphere, and the latest from Gaza.

"She's like the little bird flying under mother's wing, and she's just outside mother's wing, she's flying on her own, and gaining wind."
The Harris campaign has swung into policy announcement mode, with a sweep of new measures for encouraging small business. But with suggestions Harris needs to do more to distinguish herself from the Biden administration, how does she showcase her differences while still demonstrating she is a safe pair of hands to those who desire continuation? Also discussing criticism of Netanyahu in the ceasefire process, Nippon Steel, Trump's Arlington disaster, and the Apalachee High shooting in Georgia.

"We're really pushing against a ceiling here... she's got to reach deep into her cookie jar and pull out more cookies."
Officially the Democrats' nomination for president in 2024, Kamala Harris continues to gain in the polls but Republicans are doing all that they can to keep people from voting with voter purges, lawsuits, and intimidation. Meanwhile, Jack Smith is doing his best to salvage his January 6th case after the Supreme Courts' decision on sweeping presidential immunity. Also discussing the leadup to the debate, RFK Jr dropping out of the race, and the latest from Gaza and Ukraine.

"This is a movement, and I'm saying movement here beyond political parties."
Democrats have come together to pull for Kamala Harris at the Democratic National Convention this week, so just what kind of election platform are we seeing come together as far as policy is concerned? Also, attempts to impeach Joe Biden have died not with a bang but with a whimper as Republicans have found nothing to substantiate allegations of bribery or fraud. Also discussing the latest on lowering drug costs, Gaza, Ukraine and Russia, the NFL's concussion settlement, and RKF Jr rumoured to drop out in the coming week.

"This campaign now is the Happy Meal, they're announcing happy happy happy, better better better, don't fight all that old, ugly stuff."
Kamala Harris continues to make massive gains over Donald Trump in the polls, but is there a risk of complacency setting in if more policies are not announced? Meanwhile, Ukraine has flipped the script on Russia and made an incursion into Russia territory to Putin's outrage. Also discussing the Iranian hack of the Trump campaign, Middle East talks, cancer moonshot, and fears officials may refuse to certify 2024 election results.

"So if the nation's in danger, look to the coach."
It's official, the Democratic National Convention has nominated Kamala Harris unopposed as their presidential candidate for the 2024 election and she has announced Minnesota governor Tim Walz as her running mate. While Donald Trump was hoping Joe Biden would somehow return to snatch back the nomination, he's got problems enough of his own to distract him with fresh bribery allegations. Also discussing Supreme Court reforms, closing a loophole on politicians who trade in stock, escalation in the Middle East, and race riots in the UK.

"Americans are feeling positive... the first thing Kamala did in her first ad was talk about the things she's going to do."
The White House has announced anticipated reforms for the Supreme Court this week, including term limits and a binding code of conduct, but just how long before any of it can come into effect? Meanwhile, the Harris campaign is making great strides against her 'weird' opponent, but its still a long road ahead to the voting booths. Also discussing legal developments for 9/11 perpetrators, Israel and Iran, Venezuela, fires in Alberta, and the Olympics.
