  • With Preet, you also make no secret about your politics, but I want to talk about the thing you have in common, which is that you're both podcasters in the podcast industry.

  • So the 2024 election, as I'm sure you've heard, has been dubbed by some, the podcast election.

  • Both candidates spent a lot of time going on podcasts.
