Episode 7-Answer the Damn Question
Manage episode 482576975 series 3657765
Why is it so hard for politicians to just answer the damn question?
In this solo episode, Russ Bates breaks down one of the most frustrating things in politics today — long-winded, empty responses that say nothing. Whether it’s a press conference, a podcast, or testifying before Congress, too many politicians from both sides talk in circles, dodge accountability, and insult our intelligence with rehearsed spin.
Russ explains why this isn’t a partisan problem — it’s a leadership one. And why pretending to answer is worse than just saying “I’m not going to answer that.”
🎧 Real talk. No spin.
