The Blueprint with Jen Psaki - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Jen is a good interviewer, and the length of the conversations is in the sweet spot for me. So far, she balances insider knowledge with inquisitiveness. Like, she knows her stuff but isn’t a know-it-all. She also lets her guests be the main character, which not all MSNBC hosts do.

Loved the conversation with Jemele Hill! She was insightful, candid and inspiring—definitely what I needed to hear this morning. She gets at the heart of why action and awareness matter, and why Democrats (and anyone who cares about democracy and freedoms being trampled) need to realize we can be noble in our aims without being accommodating to those who clearly have no regard for the norms surrounding public discourse and civic life.

Listened to the interview with Wes Moore this morning - so good! Jen is a great interviewer, and lets the person she is interviewing talk! Sounds simple, but so many podcast hosts don’t seem to get it. Moore is a rising star in the Democratic Party - looking forward to seeing where he goes from Maryland governorship!

Episode with Jack Schlossberg was terrific. He is breaking through the noise and getting the attention of my two teenage boys on social media….not a small feat.
