Hello and welcome to the political orphanage, a home for plucky misfits and problem solvers. I'm your host Andrew Heaton and today is

part two of this week's pitch me on candidate was his name.

Yesterday that was his name was Donald Trump.

Today that was his name is Kamala Harris.

It's my hope that we can cover some economics and foreign policy

and perhaps add a touch of light to an otherwise very boring

quotidian run-of-the-mill on controversial election but let's try to mill, uncontroversial election.

But let's try to puncture through the surface tension a little bit

and try to get to some of the underlying policy mechanisms

that are of importance. Okay, enjoy.

I am joined today by Jeremiah Johnson and Jeff Maurer. They are thinky

Democrat friends of mine that I feel like I have a lot of overlap with where

where I'm like okay you guys you guys talked to me at stuff I'm like all right all right so like I think you all are good to pitch me you're good people to pitch me on this

Jeff Maurer is the writer of I might be wrong on sub. He is a former speech writer for the EPA, a political analyst,

and one of the funniest people I know, former writer for last week tonight, so a switch hitter in terms of both comedy and political analysis.

Jeremiah Johnson is the host of the New Liberal podcast and the,

what is your, are you the kernel of the New Liberal,

what is your title within the New Liberal Center, what is your title within the New Liberal Center?
