Today’s the day. If you’re an American, you may well be reading these words while waiting in line to cast your ballot for the next president. The election is, unsurprisingly, the topic of this post-show episode, recorded after my latest conversation with John McWhorter and in the company of Mark Sussman and Nikita Petrov.

Millions and millions of people feel the same way I do. They don’t want to vote for Kamala and they don’t want to vote for Trump, but they’ll pick one anyway because it seems like the less terrible option. I understand why some of them, maybe more than half of them, won’t be voting for Kamala Harris.
