About

Raging against the extremes. Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov are in the middle — and they're mad, because being a moderate in America these days does NOT mean staying silent. New episodes every weekday evening. Part of the Vox Media Podcast Network.

Video Description

On the heels of the No Kings protests that drew an estimated seven million Americans, there seems to be a strong coalition to take on Trump and the GOP. But, what will the Democrats’ message be? Jessica Tarlov and guest host David Frum of The Atlantic discuss the Democratic Party’s predicament — and the value of tacking to the center. Plus: is there a justifiable rationale for the Trump administration’s deadly strikes on boats in the Caribbean? And, Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner’s insurgent campaign was set back last week by years of past internet comments coming to light. He has taken responsibility for his remarks — but, in a primary against Gov. Janet Mills, will it matter? 00:00 Introduction 02:50 Why Democrats are still running against Trump 17:49 Why Trump is creating chaos for our Southern neighbors 30:42 Graham Platner’s race and his controversial reddit posts Follow Jessica Tarlov, @JessicaTarlov.
