Obama on the State of American Politics

A podcast recommendation.

· Wednesday, June 2, 2021 · No comments

I highly recommend the latest episode of The Ezra Klein Show, “Obama Explains How America Went From ‘Yes We Can’ to ‘MAGA.’” I’ve linked the transcription, which I don’t have time today to excerpt and comment upon, but listened to the audio podcast on the commute yesterday. It’s a fascinating insight into the mind of the 44th President but also into the American body politic. As always, Klein is well-prepared for the interview and his questions are insightful.
