  • Why Epstein Matters

    Why Epstein Matters
    Jul 16 2025
    Ravi unpacks a chaotic week in politics, with Trump’s Epstein scandal spiraling into an unprecedented crisis for his MAGA coalition. He explores how conspiracy thinking fuels Trump’s base and why this case feels different. Next, is America’s crisis infrastructure at risk? Ravi reviews FEMA’s botched disaster response in Texas. He then turns to the president’s recent erratic shifts on Ukraine and the economy and why they may signal a looming economic storm, linking Trump’s tariff threats, service sector pressure, and politicized debt policy to potential stagflation. -- Leave us a voicemail with your thoughts on the show! 321-200-0570⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Ravi at @RaviMGupta Follow Tyler at @Tyler_A_Harper Listen to Tyler's podcast, Time to Say Goodbye, on Substack: https://goodbye.substack.com/ Notes from this episode are also available on Substack: https://thelostdebate.substack.com/ Follow The Branch at @thebranchmedia Listen to more episodes of Lost Debate on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-lost-debate/id1591300785 Listen to more episodes of Lost Debate on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7xR9pch9DrQDiZfGB5oF0F

    Diddy Verdict, Mamdani Fallout, Hobby Politics
    Jul 2 2025
    Ravi welcomes The Atlantic’s Tyler Austin Harper back to the show for a wide-ranging conversation on some of the week’s biggest headlines, from the Diddy verdict and the dangers of prosecutorial outreach to Bernie Sanders’ recent appearance on Rogan and Trump’s escalating legal attacks on the press. They then turn to Zohran Mamdani’s win in the New York City mayoral primary and explore what the victory suggests about shifting ideas of political “moderation” and deep divides within Democratic messaging. Finally, Ravi and Tyler dive into Tyler's recent piece, "What We Lose When We're Priced Out of Our Hobbies," reflecting on the value of personal passions and their growing role as a political and social force. -- Leave us a voicemail with your thoughts on the show! 321-200-0570⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Ravi at @RaviMGupta Follow Tyler at @Tyler_A_Harper Listen to Tyler's podcast, Time to Say Goodbye, on Substack: https://goodbye.substack.com/ Notes from this episode are also available on Substack: https://thelostdebate.substack.com/ Follow The Branch at @thebranchmedia Listen to more episodes of Lost Debate on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-lost-debate/id1591300785 Listen to more episodes of Lost Debate on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7xR9pch9DrQDiZfGB5oF0F

  • Historic NYC Upset

    Historic NYC Upset
    Jun 25 2025
    Ravi is joined by Bradley Tusk to break down one of the wildest political upsets in recent memory: Zohran Mamdani’s decisive win in the New York City mayoral primary. They unpack how it happened, why Cuomo flamed out so badly, and what Mamdani needs to do next if he wants to govern the city. From campaign strategy to trash collection, rent freezes to charter schools, Ravi and Bradley dive into what kind of mayor Mamdani might be and what it will take to make the leap from activist to executive. They also discuss how current Mayor Eric Adams will fare running as an independent in the general, if Cuomo may try to jump back in, and what the national Democratic establishment is getting wrong in their rush to draw lessons from this race. -- Leave us a voicemail with your thoughts on the show! 321-200-0570⁠⁠⁠ Follow Ravi at @ravimgupta Follow The Branch at @thebranchmedia Listen to more episodes of Lost Debate on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-lost-debate/id1591300785 Listen to more episodes of Lost Debate on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7xR9pch9DrQDiZfGB5oF0F

This is my favorite podcast! I am a moderate and think both hosts are too. I know the first time I started to worry about politics about 20 years ago, I started to hear people talk negatively about compromise. People said they liked a candidate because they wouldn't compromise. Democracy and this country could not exist without it.

It's part of my weekly podcast rotation. I love the stories and the perspectives provided by Ravi and guests. I've recommend this podcast to a few of my friends and they're now listening as well. This is the coverage we need on the topics that affect our day to day lives here in the good ol' US of A.
