Customer Reviews
Great political banter
I enjoy the banter about current political issues. I also love that the analysis is backed up by statistics.
Great show
Good interesting analysis. Data driven discussion. The crew is funny as well, also really like the host of this show. 538 produces good content
These people are my friends. Just kidding. Maybe.
This is the only podcast I listen to religiously. I appreciate the various brands of wonkiness that Claire, Nate, Galen, Perry, Micah, and Sarah bring to the table. I always liked the horse race of the political season so much—it was my super bowl. After 2016, I couldn’t imagine loving it again, but listening to the podcast through 2018 helped bring me back into it with some good sober analysis and some good banter.
