My only complaint is that Scrim's audio gets really quiet and hard to hear halfway through. Also sounds like he's got a leaf blower running in his background.

Enjoyed the ep and agree that the Dems are in for a bit of soul-searching should Harris/Walz lose. But, it seemed you glossed over the trouble the Reps will be in should Trump/Vance lose.

Will Trump step aside? (Voluntarily or kicking and screaming?) Will Vance be tainted in GOP eyes by the ticket's failure? Who steps up to fill the power vacuum if DJT takes his MAGA ball and goes home to sulk…DeSantis, Hailey, Ramasawaney, or some, as yet, unknown? (Forgive the misspellings.)

I think both parties are in for a world of hurt should they lose but the Dems might be slightly better off in that Buttigeig is waiting on the sideline, relatively unscathed.

Keep up the good work.

I think Harris picked Walz exactly because of his progressive stances. This way, she can lean more centrist/Corporate Dem to pick up Never Trumpers and independents and he keeps the interest of leftists that aren't too thrilled with Harris for a variety of leftist reasons. It worked on me!

The question is if it’s worked with enough lefties. Or if moves like hugging the Cheneys alienates some of them.

So, the Patreon feeds are dead already. I appreciate the move, but the abrupt change is frustrating

Yes. I will post to Patreon a few more times to alert people of that.

I agree, it sucks. But there is really no perfect way to do this that moves folks over ASAP.

Guessing this was said and I missed it, but once I signed up for PX3 I received an email with RSS setup directions so I'm all set up.

you are looking to download the podcast so you can listen offline?

There's an RSS feed at the top right. Add it to your podcatcher of choice.

I am not seeing this option. Is it different on iOS?

Once I signed up for PX3 I received an option to setup up the RSS feed in Overcast. Took a few seconds and I was up and running.

I am showing as having a paid subscription bit don’t see an RSS/podcast option. Perhaps that will take some time.

Had to open up links in my browser, not the app. All good now.
