Welcome to Raging Moderates. I'm Scott Galloway. And I'm Jessica Tarlev. Jessica, where are you today? What are you up to? What are you doing? I'm at my mom's house, like all good 40-year-old women who need a quiet place. So they go to their mom's apartment to escape a potty training toddler. I think the way you're supposed to do it is you have mom come over and watch the

kids and you go to the spa or go to your friend's house and eat ice cream and smoke cigarettes. I'm making a

bunch of gender stereotypes here. I get it. I'd like to continue with that, though, to add to it that when

my mom started dating again after my dad passed away, when we were going to put her online, the joke was that her

tagline should be not that kind of grandma. So she would not be the one coming over to take care

of the toddler. She's not into that? No, I mean, she's into it, but she needs assistance.

She's not a solo rider when it comes to that stuff. But I'm appreciative of the apartment.

Today, in today's episode of Raging Moderates, we're previewing the VP debate, Kamala Harris's

trip to the border and her new economic plan. We're going to talk about it. We're going to discuss

NYC Mayor Eric Adams' indictment. And to wrap up the episode, former Maryland Governor Larry Hogan joins us for a quick

discussion on how the Republican Party feels about the election and what it takes to govern across

party lines. All right, let's like this candle. The VP debate is here. J.D. Vance and Tim Walz

are going head to head with just a month ago before Election Day. Vance has been reviewing

footage of Wall's previous speeches and studying his past policies. Meanwhile, Wals spent the weekend

hunkered down in debate camp in Michigan with Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg playing

the role of Vance and mock debates. Jess, what's your take here? What should we expect on stage

and is this really going to move the needle?

Doesn't matter. I think that it could matter. I mean, historically, they don't matter as much.

But there are a few instances where I think people really got the message, including the Joe Biden debate with Paul Ryan, where I feel like really solidified things for the ticket there in 2012.

You think he'd beat Paul Ryan?

I do.

Yeah.
