On each episode of Nation State of Play, we explore the political stories that are driving public policy in California at the federal, state, and local levels. We don’t just cover what politicians are doing—we cover how they’re doing it, and why they’re doing it. We explore these stories with political insiders, business leaders, journalists, and policy-makers themselves to get below the surface of the headlines, and show you the true forces shaping our nation state.
