I'm in the UK and completely obsessed with this podcast, it's a joy. I would give my eye teeth for us to have any kind of coverage as engaging and nuanced as this about eg Indian, Chinese, Russian politics as well, but what a blast of fresh air this is compared to UK journalism on the topic, which tends to either be so stiff it lacks nuance altogether, or so partisan it's almost cartoonish in its portrayal of the various players. Thank you!

Main problem with Electoral College is that it's mal-apportioned. 1 person 1 vote should be the rule. Number of EC votes per state should be tied to number of state's districts, not number of state's members of Congress. Wyoming having 3 EC votes and California 55 overvalues voters in Wyoming. If tied to number of districts, would be WY 1 EC vote and CA 53 EC votes, in proportion to their populations. Scaramucci doesn't want EC changed because GOP has won popular vote only ONCE since 1988 (2004)

Fascinating insight on the political landscape in America from Katty and Anthony. I could listen to Anthony read out the back of a cereal packet, love his accent 😍

Great podcast, but Viktor Orban is Prime Minister of Hungary, not President. Their President is a largely figurehead role only. Power resides with the Prime Minister.
