America, Actually

What does US politics look like without Donald Trump at the center? After more than a decade of one-person dominance, the country is heading into its first open presidential election since 2016, in a moment that feels fundamentally different.

America, Actually, hosted by Astead Herndon, is a video podcast about politics, culture, and the economy. It follows the country as it changes in real time, focusing on what’s actually shaping people’s lives.
