As we record this podcast, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are preparing for their much publicized live televised presidential debate in Philadelphia in a race that is effectively a tie at the moment, it's a fitting place for the debate.
It's in the state of Pennsylvania, which is one of a handful of swing states that will determine the outcome of the election.
Aaron Karl is a presidential debate expert from the University of Michigan.
He says more than 50 million Americans will tune into the 90 minutes showdown.
There's no other event in the campaign speeches, press conferences, the conventions that will gather anywhere near this number, this audience of tens of millions approaching Super bowl like ratings.
One night, one opportunity for both to.
Reach so many people among the millions watching these voters in Philadelphia, Vice President.
Harris, I really think this is, this is her chance to get her message out, to get her personality out there.
Really to find out what her policies are.
I'm interested to hear with both, both individuals have to say I haven't swayed who I'm going to vote for.
I don't want a convicted felon as the president.
So there you go.
