Bonus: Stand Up! with Pete Dominick DNC Correspondent

When Abigail had the incredible opportunity to attend the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Illinois, in August of 2024, friend and mentor of the pod Pete Dominick offered her an even more incredible opportunity: to serve as the official DNC Correspondent for the Stand Up! with Pete Dominick podcast. This is a compilation of the two segments she recorded for the podcast, as well as an exclusive segment for Pete’s Patreon supporters - of which Barry and Abigail are two.For a dozen years, Pete hosted a fabulous public affairs show on Sirius XM Radio. His unique and humorous perspective on current events coupled with his great long-form interviews made this Barry's primary source of news for many years.In October 2019, Sirius XM made the awful decision not to renew his contract, due in large part to his resistance to the rehiring of Steve Bannon as a Sirius XM host. With nowhere else to turn, Pete started his own daily podcast, relying on subscribers as his sole source of income. Shortly afterwards, the COVID-19 pandemic afforded Pete the opportunity to create a weekly social hangout for subscribers. This quickly became an important means of connection for people isolated during the pandemic. This community quickly became a new group of virtual friends from all across the country. As the world has reopened from the pandemic, many of those newfound friends have met in person - most recently at the 2024 inaugural Stand Up! PodJam, at which we recorded our first-ever live episode!Pete and his community have been amazing supporters of our podcast from the beginning, and Abigail was extremely honored to be his DNC correspondent.Up next… Who’s Next by The Who, submitted to our Jukebox by Todd Sider.
