Post-election special with Justin Young and Andrew Heaton

So what did the political orphans do in the Presidential election? 

Check this out. Self-identified independents accounted for a larger share of voters than Democrats and were tied with Republicans, Edison Research exit polling data showed.

The independent turnout share was up 8 percentage points from 2020, when it was at 26%. 

Here at the Lost in the Middle podcast we are not surprised. We told you so. 

I joined forces this week with two other political podcast hosts to give our own twisted post-mortem in our final episode of '24.

Joining me is Justin Young, a journalist, comedian and host of “Politics, Politics, Politics,” and Andrew Heaton a comedian, author and political satirist who hosts “The Political Orphanage.”
