The CAFE team is taking a break from our usual programming this week, but we’re sharing another podcast we think you’ll enjoy.

They cover President Biden’s decision to withdraw from the race, the role donors played in forcing Biden’s hand, and the fallout from the disastrous debate in June and accusations that Klain was partly to blame for the president’s poor performance. They also discuss Biden’s legacy and Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign.  It’s another challenging, insightful discussion from one of the best in podcasting.
