Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 72: New York! New York! Primaries w/ Jeff Coltin of City & State
Q: What makes the New York 10 race between Brad Lander and Dan Goldman unique in its dynamics?
Goldman faces a formidable one-on-one challenge from Lander in a heavily progressive district, with Goldman leveraging his own wealth and insider connections while Lander benefits from mayoral endorsement and a broad progressive coalition; the outcome hinges on local issues, endorsements, and fundraising around a high-profile national conversation about Israel policy and Gaza War.
Episode 72: New York! New York! Primaries w/ Jeff Coltin of City & State
Q: Jeff, welcome to the show.
Jeff Coltin is introduced as the Editor-in-Chief of City & State New York, with a background in NYC politics, making him well-suited to discuss the crowded NYC primary landscape and the broader general election dynamics in New York.
Episode 67: Democrats Favored to Win House Majority w/ Mary Ellen McIntire of Roll Call
Q: When should listeners expect Roll Call rankings next, given the evolving battlefield landscape?
Roll Call rankings are expected in early May, six months out from the November elections, with context about ongoing redistricting, primary results, and incumbent vulnerability.
Episode 67: Democrats Favored to Win House Majority w/ Mary Ellen McIntire of Roll Call
Q: Mel, tell us what you see in Texas 23 and bring everyone up to speed on the developments there.
The district moved from solid to likely Republican due to recent developments surrounding Tony Gonzales, including his admission of an affair with a staffer who died by suicide, which affected the race dynamics and the Republican candidate slate.
Episode 48: Congressional Baseball Game Preview (and the fight for the Senate Majority) w/ Nathaniel Rakich
