In this episode, Ross dives into the world of politics, discussing the upcoming midterms and the factors that will influence the outcome. With the war in Ukraine and rising gas prices, the political landscape is shifting, and it's anyone's guess how voters will react. The speaker is joined by Henry Olsen, a renowned expert on elections, who shares his insights on the current state of the races in Alabama and Georgia.

The conversation covers the open Senate primary in Alabama, where Trump-endorsed Barry Moore is facing a challenge from Jared Hudson. In Georgia, the speaker looks at the open seats, including the challenge to Andrew Clyde, a member of Congress, and the Georgia Senate primary. The discussion also touches on the impact of redistricting on the midterms and how it could affect the outcome.

One of the key takeaways from the conversation is the importance of the president's job approval rating in determining the party's performance in the midterms. The speaker notes that if the president is suffering, their party tends to do reasonably well, but if they're doing well, individual candidates can make a difference. This is particularly true for incumbents like Susan Collins, who have demonstrated their independence.
