So we tried a kind of a thought experiment this week. We recorded this show on election night without knowing the outcome of the election. We’re going to record Part 2 now that we know the outcome, as a … contrast, we suppose.
But despite the fact that this episode is somewhat untimely, it’s still a good one. We talk about Joe Biden dropping out, Kamala Harris becoming the nominee, Tim Walz becoming the vice presidential nominee, and what’s happened since. We also talk about our hopes — now dashed — for the outcome of the election and why, no matter what happened, we have to keep fighting. And along the way, we share some words of wisdom from Tom Morello and an artist you may not be familiar with: Ian Robinson, who goes by the stage name Black Guy Fawkes.
There’s a lot more, of course — media failures, exit polling, early voting — but you’ll have to tune in to find out!
So, we hope you enjoy the show, please feel free to follow us on Instagram (@jenn_and_dave), and we’ll talk again soon.
