Democrats Need a Vibes Czar

Emily and Kate are finally recording the phone calls they were going to have anyway. In the inaugural episode: Emily's harrowing saga of getting her iPhone battery changed (spoiler: Apple broke the whole phone), the case for why your $1,200 device is designed to fall apart right on schedule, and a genuinely good conversation about why the Democratic Party keeps losing the narrative war — and why "doing what worked last cycle" is a losing strategy in an information environment that changes faster than their consultants can keep up with. Plus: the canvassing event from hell, the DNC chair situation, and why what the party really needs is a few personality hires.
