The Shrinking Majority
On the Gist, the shrinking list of Democrats in Congress. And, today in Remembrances of Things Trump: Trump trying to surprise the parents of British teenager Harry Dunn with their son's killer. In the interview, the Gist's favorite guest, Maria Konnikova, is back for another round of "Is That Bullshit?" She and Mike talk about long shot political wins and describe what it meant for Donald Trump to draw an inside straight in 2016. It's a great hand to bluff with, but oftentimes it can be a bad strategy in poker and in life. Maria's book The Biggest Bluff: How I Learned to Pay Attention, Master Myself, and Win is a New York Times bestseller and listed as one of their 100 Notable Books for 2020. In the spiel, it's the final lobster of the antentwig of 2020! Email us at [email protected] Podcast production by Daniel Schroeder and Margaret Kelley. Learn more about your ad choices.
