Savage speaks with Joel Pollak about his new role as the Opinion Editor for the California Post, a soon-to-be-launched West Coast offshoot of the New York Post. Pollak emphasizes the publication's mission to present alternative viewpoints often suppressed in California, particularly those critical of the current Democratic leadership. The conversation also touches upon Gavin Newsom's political career, his controversial podcast with conservative guests, and his presidential aspirations. Pollak outlines his plans to bring together prominent Californian voices and think tanks to offer fresh perspectives on governance. The discussion concludes with speculation about future political contenders for the 2028 Presidential Election and the future of California and beyond.

| 0:00.0 | And now the world's most exciting podcast, The Savage Nation, home of borders, language, culture. |
| 0:14.8 | Here he is, Michael Savage. |
| 0:19.3 | So we all know about the New York Post. I read it every day. I mean, I'm online with all sorts of sites. |
| 0:24.8 | The Post is one of my favorites. And I learned that they created a West Coast offshoot that's going to |
| 0:30.9 | begin soon called the California Post, which unto itself is interesting. And then even more interesting, |
| 0:36.4 | I learned that they hired one of my |
| 0:37.5 | favorite people, Breitbart senior editor at large Joel Pollock as its opinion editor, |
| 0:43.3 | which means that the California Post will maintain its, I think it's editorial outlook, |
| 0:50.3 | which you could call it conservative, you can call it American, you could call it nationalist, |

| 1:44.7 | people who read your paper are going to be Democrats, but trying to say there's a better way of doing |
| 1:49.9 | things than the way the current crop of Democrats has been doing them. And my motto for the |
| 1:54.8 | opinion page is going to be, we deserve better, because certainly we do deserve better than we're |
| 1:59.8 | getting in California. |
| 2:02.8 | I agree. Savage. |
| 2:06.3 | Michael Savage, a host like no other. |
| 2:10.3 | You don't need a PhD to see what's happening. |
