The beauty of Substack’s podcasts is that the Comment section can be used by WE the People to make our issues known It’s like a marketplace for ideas around policy as well as responding to the podcast about the most recent shiny object that Trump throws out to distract us from what the Nazis(aka Republicans) are doing This has always been a problem with MSCM(mainstream corporate media) where the dictation of what’s covered doesn’t often deal with relevant issues for the People

Domestic issues like threats to free and fair elections, affordable housing, dealing with inflation, raising minimum wage and others can help guide podcasters and elected officials to discuss these relevant topics with experts in their respective fields And foreign policy that impacts the country’s security
