Stay With Me Here

A weekly politics podcast where Erin Flanagan and Jacob Shropshire help you navigate through the noise, so you walk away with all the stuff you need to know and none of the stuff you don’t. Each week, the two of them break down the three biggest stories around the world, and talk about how the different parts of the global machinery fit together. Then, in Have You Heard? they talk through the rest of the headlines and give you just what you need to know to fit in at the watercooler, and they'll even throw in some animal news just for fun.  This podcast turns into an article summary at each week's episode over on Substack. We'd love for you to subscribe! You can follow us on Instagram (@staywithmeherepod), Facebook, or Bluesky (@swmhpod.bsky.social). Erin Flanagan is a former U.S. Coast Guard intelligence officer and Agence France-Presse digital investigations journalist. Jacob Shropshire is an editorial intern at Worldcrunch and the managing editor of Peacock Media at the American University of Paris. He spent two years working for Democratic political campaigns in the U.S.
