I decided to listen to this again in light of Veepstakes and all I can say is, "gimme some Josh Shapiro, stat!"

Josh Shapiro won against Doug Mastriano which is not saying much. Sort of like stroke victim Jon Fetterman winning against Dr Oz. Josh Shapiro might win a US Senate seat in PA but he would never win POTUS. Just like Pete Buttigiegthe would never win as POTUS candidate. Wishful thinking. How many times will the Democrats run candidates who will be rejected by mainstream Americans?

Outstanding, Tim.

I get that not every podcast can be like this, but it would be great if they could.

Now I get the drumbeat around Shapiro running for POTUS.

How the hell is Mr. Shapiro not the face of the Democratic Party.

Talk about "down-home" talk and intellect!!!

We listened to the reality of the Democratic party of the 21st cventury.

You, Tim Miller, owe me a new keyboard. I spit out my iced tea when you asked the Governor to look straight into the camera and then asked him if he ever shot a dog.

Great interview but be fair to California. Caltrans fixed I-10 very quickly after fire damage.

We deserve to be teased about the train 😁

Good interview, Shapiro comes across as normal-sounding and competent. I know Shapiro won in a blowout in 2022, but how this man beat Deranged Doug Mastriano by only 15 points says a lot about where we are as a country and what a whole lot of voters want in their elected officials

Fantastic interview. I have followed Gov Shapiro for several years and find him to be smart as a whip. I remember his son walking into his interview during Covid and slowly backed out of the scream. That was priceless.

Thx for the reminder of the quick I-95 fix :). Cutting through red tape improves the process!

What a wonderful interview. PA is so lucky to have him.

It was such a relief to hear somebody call this out as antisemitism without feeling the need to differentiate it from Zionism, which many of the protesters clearly don’t understand.

I don’t think he believes that there was “overkill” in breaking up the protests. Like David French, he’s a lawyer and he knows what the First Amendment says.

Tim, you are doing such a good job both with getting interesting folks to come on, then having good conversations. This was an especially good episode.

Really a great interview with Josh Shapiro. He is a great representative of the Democrats and what they stand for. Tim you do really thoughtful and interesting interviews. I love listening to The Bulwark as it is always interesting and insightful.
