Like many others, I was very sad about 538 shutting down. GD Politics has been a welcome continuation of the 538 podcast, but even better now that Galen is on his own. I think the show has benefited from more creative freedom, variety, and being able to hear Galen’s point of view more front and center. Galen was always an excellent host but this podcast has showed that he’s also an excellent analyst and commentator as well. Thanks Galen!
…but it’s not! I was wondering what went on with the Texas primaries and had Galen’s voice in my head narrating what happened and, here we are! Thanks for keeping this going yall!
I’m so happy Galen is back. I miss 538 so much! It is really helpful to have someone smart figure out what the polls mean and how valid they are.
SO glad Galen and crew kept this going despite ABC shutting down 538.
Always insightful listening to Galen dish on politics and current events. Galen gets great guests to help share unique perspectives and slice through noisy data to get closer to the truth of what’s really going on and what American’s are thinking and feeling. Integral part of my weekly podcast-listening routine!
