Changing my rating due to paid requirement. Putting one pod behind a paywall and one free is a bad move and quite frankly, this podcast is solid but I don’t pay for just podcasts and barely any other content. Frustrating. —- Great start to the podcast. Having Nate Silver as the first guest just makes sense. The conversation was top notch. Galen is an excellent host and I was happy to have the familiar voice back in my feed. First episode it makes sense to lean on what you know, but I look forwar... more
I’ve listened to Galen for years and was happy and excited to support this new venture, but come on, man. There’s a whole world outside of New York. As a red state liberal, I’m tired of the trash talk about us useless rubes in flyover country. If I’d known you thought so little of us all along, I probably wouldn’t have bothered with 538 at all, never mind GD Politics. Have a great day.
Host Galen is a savvy and engaging podcast hosting and producing veteran who knows how to balance his analysis with the analysis of the excellent guests he gets. Topics are extremely relevant week by week and episodes are more fun without ABC to answer to
GALEN! Why did it take me so long to find your podcast???? I have missed you & 538 so much!!!
Always excellent discussions and now you finally have a logo worthy of your show!!
