Grand Divisions: A Politics Podcast

A longtime Grand Divisions listener and fan of fireside-type chats, former Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam offered to guest host an episode while turning the tables on us. Instead of fielding questions, Haslam asks Natalie and I about our personal history and the current state of the media landscape. He presses us how we do our jobs and set aside our personal biases.  During an at-times challenging interview, Haslam also stresses the importance of local news coverage to maintain an informed electorate.
