Political strategist, author, and CNN commentator Brad Todd joins Paul Ollinger for a no-BS and eye-opening conversation about what’s really happening in American politics. From growing up in East Tennessee to advising senators, governors, and big-time campaigns, Brad’s been in the trenches for decades — and he’s got the stories to prove it. Paul and Brad dig into the rise of populism, how the Republican Party has changed, and the real challenges facing Democrats in 2025. Brad gives unfiltered takes on Donald Trump’s second term, what a post-Trump GOP might look like, and why primaries and caucuses shape the country’s future. You’ll also hear what Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett was like at Rhodes College (where both Paul and Brad went to school), some high-stakes dog track bets, and why politics is still a young person’s game. It’s part insider scoop, part history lesson, part comedy — the kind of conversation that’ll make you think, laugh, and maybe even yell at your screen. If you want the truth about U.S. politics without the cable news noise, this is it.
