'BradCast' 2/8/2023 (Special coverage of the State of the Union Address)
02-08-2023 (53.23 MB)
On today's 'BradCast': We have full post-speech team coverage today of Joe Biden's second State of the Union address as President, which turned out to be an unexpectedly fun humdinger of a speech, including 'the greatest Rope-a-Dope Moment in the all-time history of State of the Union addresses.' The great HEATHER DIGBY PARTON, the award-winning columnist at Salon and founder of Digby's Hullabaloo blog, and 'DRIFTGLASS,' of The Professional Left podcast, offer insight, context and analysis of the frequently contentious, very unusual event, and the strange Republican response. Biden delivered lively remarks and surprisingly brilliant off-book responses to the raucous, obnoxious jeers and heckling from members of the new Republican House majority. Biden touted his administration's accomplishments in what is arguably one of the most successful first two years of any presidency going back to at least FDR. Snap polling revealed a whopping 72 percent of Americans who watched the speech reacted positively. Will his remarks on Tuesday make any difference in his approval ratings moving forward? We cover a lot of ground on today's special coverage, with lots of insight, analysis and hilarity. . .
