It’s been a week of extremes. From extreme heatwaves across the US, to President Trump’s extremely unprecedented $2 billion income, to the extreme heights of two climbers who scaled the Empire State Building to raise a protest flag.
And speaking of heights, Travis Kelce, the host of New Heights podcast, has announced he and his wife Taylor Swift will be getting married tomorrow. Apparently some people care a great deal about this, so congratulations to the happy couple.
However, in a slight change to our regularly scheduled programming, I’m not covering any of this on the podcast this week because I’m on holiday in the Isle of Wight county. Not the Isle of Wight county in Virginia, but its namesake here in the UK - a small little island of the south coast.
But the show must go on, as they say, so this week I am joined by Dr. Tim Galsworthy, lecturer in History and Military History at Lincoln Bishop University, for a special preview of the midterms.
From Texas to Ohio, and the road to the White House, we rundown the races to watch, the people to keep an eye on, and what all of this might mean for Trump, the Republicans, and the 2028 Presidential race.
