  • Awesome discussion but the SOUND quality

    I love this podcast & have been listening for years - the analysis of methodology, critical conversations about political theory, and diverse perspectives are so much fun! But the sound mixing is so bad - the host & guest audio is extremely variable & not balanced, so I end up needing to skip 20% of episodes bc I can’t actually hear one of the hosts while the others are quite loud. Hopefully y’all can get the sound in shape, because the discussion is always worth it!

  • Research opportunity: Look at Mexican case

    The episode about voter turnout looks at a Spanish research paper that studied the effect of women and men having been randomly assigned to work in voting polls in the first election following women gaining the right to vote in Spain in the 1930s, which found that the women who held this responsibility were 30% more likely to vote in the next elections than a sort of control group….interesting case. This research could be interesting to follow up with research in Mexico, where in every election ... more

  • Thoughtful examination of political questions

    If you’re looking for a heavily right- or leftwing podcast, this isn’t for you. Each week’s discussion does not react to the buzzword of the week, nor does it follow a particular woke or MAGA script. Research is incorporated and discussed thoughtfully, but it doesn’t become academic navel gazing. My only complaint is that Wioletta needs a professional mic! It sounds like she’s recording on beat-up Thinkpad from 1996.

  • Disappointing

    Thought this would have been a discussion with new or different insights. It is not. Analysis seemed shallow & information cited very standard

  • Are You Kidding Me

    The discussion by Matthew Levendusky about the Supreme Court was the most superficial banal bit of pablum I’ve heard in a long time. My views on the Court are not based on New York Times reporting. Nor is it based on its partisan ruling on Roe. It’s the fact that for the past few years, this Court twists its argument to fit its predetermined decision. And in many cases they actually twist the “facts” to support their predetermined decision (eg. See Kennedy). They bounce between their interpretat... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Do Dishonest People Self-Select Into Public Service?
Q: Why are more dishonest individuals entering civil service positions?
The study suggests that it's due more to self-selection rather than an objective push of dishonesty in the selection process; those who become government officials tend to have traits that are more aligned with dishonesty.
What Can Political Science Learn from Crypto Governance?
Q: How do you think about the contribution here to political science?
The study of DAOs provides a unique opportunity to understand vote delegation in political contexts, comparing potential outcomes of decentralized governance to established political institutions.
Can Trade Be A Weapon Of Global Power?
Q: Can you walk me through the basic logic of your model and what are the determinants of international power?
The model focuses on the asymmetry of damage and how countries can unilaterally disrupt trade relations to exert power, factoring in adjustments based on trade sectors.
Does The Supreme Court Need Term Limits?
Q: How would the implementation of term limits potentially impact judicial independence?
Term limits could affect justices' motivations and lead to behaviors where they may feel pressured to please political leaders for future opportunities, introducing political incentives that could compromise their judicial independence.
Does The Supreme Court Need Term Limits?
Q: What is the main concern driving the conversation about term limits for Supreme Court justices?
The primary concern is the disconnect between the Court's composition and public political outcomes, as well as the influence of strategic retirements in maintaining ideological balances that do not reflect the majority's views.
