All The President's Minutes - Minute 70 with James Oliphant

Powered by RedCircle

All the President's Minutes is a podcast where conversations about movies, journalism, politics and history meet. Each show we use the seminal and increasingly prescient 1976 film All The President's Men as a portal, to engage with the themes and the warnings of the film resonating since its release. For minute 70, I join National Political correspondent at Reuters and movie fan James Oliphant. James and I discuss not being able to get in front of 'real' voters in isolation, the lack of hope in the ending of The Big Short in contrast to President's and tackling a literal "red herring" in the minute at hand.
