Live from Crooked Con, Lovett talks with top Democratic strategists Morris Katz, Lis Smith, and Danielle Butterfield about what ads and messages worked in the field, their favorite content from other campaigns, and what pissed them off the most. Then, Alex Wagner sits down with Senator Chris Van Hollen to talk about the Senate leadership fight, holding Trump accountable, and whether he has his eye on 2028.

At a time when it’s increasingly easy to feel cynical or hopeless, former Obama staffers Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, and Tommy Vietor have created a place where people can have sane conversations that inform, entertain, and inspire action. In 2017 they started Crooked with Pod Save America—a no-bullshit conversation about politics. Since then, we continue to add shows, voices, and opportunities for activism, because it’s up to all of us to do our part to build a better world. That’s it. End of mission.
