The new series counting down to the US Presidential Election. This week: Kamala Harris has chosen Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to be her running mate – and everyone’s gone crazy about him. The Dems are crazy in love, the Republicans, just straight up crazy. Is he so great – is there a bad thing we can say about him? Plus, Project 2025 has been a buzzword in attacks on Trump – how linked to him is it, how scary are its proposals, and should we take it seriously? Philip Bump, author of The Aftermath: The Last Days of the Baby Boom and the Future of Power in America and a columnist for the Washington Post joins us to discuss.
Nikki McCann Ramírez, of Rolling Stone, Jacob Jarvis and Chris Jones chat about the latest issues in US politics – and reveal a band they all like too.
