Hey, what a day, listeners.
Jane here, dropping in to share the first episode of a new Crooked Limited series we're really excited about.
It's called Long Play.
The South is the new epicenter of American politics.
It's the fastest growing region in the country, and its power in Congress and the Electoral College is growing, too.
And now, changes to the Voting Rights Act have raised the stakes even higher.
For both major parties, the path to winning America runs to the South.
But to win it, you have to understand it.
Longplay is a limited series from the folks who brought you Showtime's The Circus.
Across six southern states, Longplay examines the issues driving voters in a region
that could shape the future of our politics and our country.
It's really excellent work from Emmy-nominated host and southerner Jennifer Palmieri,
former mayor of New Orleans Mitch Landro, and award-winning journalist Aaron Haynes.
We're thrilled to share it with you,
and I can't wait for you to hear such a fascinating examination of what the New South really is.
You can listen to the first episode right here,
and if you like it, watch or listen to the second episode right now by subscribing
to Long Play Series on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
We'll put the links in the show notes.
Yeah, it could be better.
