Keep on Running, The Trump Strategy

Hi guys, I view the moment Trump gained ownership of the GOP was when he said he was willing to keep running regardless of primary nomination in 2016. I feel those in power were afraid of losing 1/3 their voting block. All the GOP candidates minus Christy raised their hands to give it to Trump. What if Christy just keeps running? Is he to establishment to do so?

Credentials over Socials

Hi guys, Marshall, you've broughten up how you view yourself as more of an academic than a producer for a show. I was curious on your views of displaying credentials or education in the lower thirds over Twitter handles when it comes to interviews or news shows. Whenever I see a Twitter handle and I don't have a Twitter account it's kind of useless to me. Speaking from a normal person's perspective I'm not about to go follow some PhD or politician account off of a segment. I understand you're posting it on social media and everyone wants to gain an audience I was curious from your academic leaning perspective for a show which do you feel is more beneficial? For Saagar, You have a degree in Security and went to college that gives you great insights into conflicts and the ability to give nuance. But to somebody I'm showing a clip to you're just some random guy in a suit on a set. I'm not saying to audibly bring it every time like I have a degree in this" but a non-audible representation goes a long way with helping show others that you are not some random person talking about a topic.

Are you guys Podcasts?

Hi guys, Last AMA you answered a question on podcast burnout, and a follow up. I was curious if you consider yourselves podcasts or something else? This probably applies more the Saagar and BP than The Realignment due to it being audio first. The Realignment is a set away from a Interview show, and BP is a independent media channel in my eyes, once you have to reference something on screen I feel like you lose the podcast\audio vibe. What makes a show a podcast? Is it the independent nature of it? Is it the "not music" category on platforms?
