It's a new podcast from your friends at Crooked Media, the people that are behind Pod Save America. I mean, let's face it, you're busy, you're stressed, you're single. You're projecting? Okay, the point is, in 15 minutes, we're going to give you a quick download on the news that you need to know, from impeachment to Pete Wentz. Yeah, okay, the bass player from Fall Out Boy. He'll be back in the news at some point. And we're not just going to tell you about what's broken and what's not working every single day. Yeah, like some other news shows. We're also going to talk a little bit about what people are doing to address these systemic problems and what you can do in your life as well. Because even though the news can be pretty frustrating at times, it's just important to remember that we're all in this together. Hashtag High School Musical.

Yeah, that was nice. Thank Gideon. What a day. What a day. What a day. What a day? What? The day?

What? A day. Longplay, our docuseries exploring the people and forces shaping the South, is back. Newsflash, the South is the new political epicenter of the country. Democrats are way on their heels in this region, but Republicans are going through their own reckoning in the South, too. We're in the final stretch of the midterms, and the political map has only gotten more competitive, with new states and districts emerging as potential flips. So we thought it was time to get back out on the road and take a closer look at what's actually happening on the ground. I'm Erin Haines, journalist and expert on all things Southern politics. And I'm Jennifer Palmieri, former White House Communications Director. Tune in on Mondays to Longplay Series on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.
