Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
With two more weeks of primary election results to pick over, Steve Hayward checks in with Henry Olsen to see how things look. Florida increasingly appears to be the most interesting battleground state, with very competitive races for both governor and U.S. Senator. Henry also puts down his political polling data and puts on his Bill James hat to look ahead to the baseball playoff season starting a month from now. Also soccer, but we don’t really care about soccer. It’s a weenie Eurosport.

I enjoyed this episode but could have stood for a bit more detailed look on how the races you discussed with Henry impact the National aspect of where the Senate and House will sit at the end of it all. Especially since you referenced that the opposite of the “all politics are local” is true this cycle. I hear a lot about the Nationalization of politics but would be interesting to hear how a local race has been Nationalized and what impact that has on the race and the overall outcome of this cycle. Looking forward to hearing Henry again.
Dear Steve:
I love the new bumper music. Especially the intro.
Can you tell us the title of the tune and the name of the artist(s)? I have been looking for it in the show notes and have not been able to find it.
Cheers,
Walter
P.S. I left this same comment on Ep 77.
Walter sounds like you need to ask Siri “Hey Siri what is this song” while listening to the bump music. 🤔
Sorry I missed
Sorry I missed the previous request! The Intro tune is “Buster” from moe. Studio version. There are several really good live versions available widely online. Thanks!
