The Focus Group Podcast

Unfiltered, uncompromising, unexpected—The Focus Group is a look into what the average voter thinks about politics, policy, and current events. Sarah Longwell, publisher of The Bulwark, has conducted hundreds of hours of focus groups all across the country. She and a series of special guests will take you behind the glass to hear what real focus group participants have to say. https://www.thebulwark.com/podcast/focus-group/

So Hard To Listen To
há 4 dias
I’m giving 5 stars because Sarah is doing an excellent job and deserves a medal for listening to these uninformed and seemingly lazy Trump voters. It’s depressing that people can’t take the time to research policy and issues. It’s even more depressing that they voted for a rapist and a convicted felon. I am also so tired on the blame placed on democrats. The mess we are in is entirely the fault of the people that voted for Trump. I applaud you Sarah for being seemingly patient with them during your focus groups. I also wonder - do these voters listen to your podcast after they have been recorded? If they do hopefully they will learn something.
Trump voters?

Sarah please. Enough Trumpers! Good to know how they think. But I want to know how non Trumper thinks!
Ads poorly placed

Please put ads in more appropriate places in your podcast, why do you put them in the middle of your sentences and conversations? Makes it completely unlistenable.
Sarah is the best

Americans have short memory

This latest episode made me remember how Americans need recent history lessons. Why aren’t we remembering the ‘94 deal to provide security protections for handing over nuclear arsenal?? Ukraine has every right to push america to hold up our end of the deal.
Poor Sarah

I have no idea how Sarah can sit through these Trump voter focus groups. Geez-o-Pete’s I’m losing brain cells listening 😳
Honest and insightful

When Sarah doesn’t know the reason something is happening in politics she goes out and finds real voters to talk to and learns from them. She never sugarcoats reality. Her insights into how people around our country are thinking are often better than any polls because it’s their own words. The guests on this show can be really interesting with the insights they bring from their own research. I look forward to hearing Sarah’s takes every week even if some of what I learn about my fellow Americans is a real bummer.
Oh Boy

Made it to 19:40. Had to stop. Appreciate that these young guys were willing to be part of the focus group but man alive are they products of misinformation. I thought maybe I could be wrong (typical liberal) so I fact checked while they were talking and nope— they were wrong.
Awesome pod!i

I love the pod! The guests are great!! I would love to hear a Cam episode focusing on his generation! Update - Not long after I wrote this they posted a “raw audio -guys being dudes “ that was absolutely horrendous. It could’ve been called “ raw sewage.” no one needs a whole episode of focus group without your excellent guests contextualizing it . This would’ve been a perfect episode for Cam and Tim ! Low light was the guy that was like I don’t trust media so I listen to Candace Owens and Ben Shapiro!! Seriously when Sarah decides to take a well-deserved vacation next time , have one of the other guys cover. Don’t just roll tape of Gen Z dudes rambling for an hour. I feel like it morphed me into a boomer on the spot.luckily they are mostly incels ! I can see why this generation is reproducing less!

I admire your work very much. I also admire the work you. This particular episode speaking to the age group you were speaking to points out to me several things they apparently have never been taught civics or how to be a citizen of the United States. They do not have the capacity to expand their thinking to the future and what kind of damage the MAGA Movement can create. They don’t understand that their future livelihood will be picking crops in the field unless they’re very very rich.
