Join WBUR and friends for live tapings of your favorite podcasts. Meet the people who are shaping the podcast landscape and be the first to hear their next episode, get a sneak peek of audio left on the cutting room floor or dig deeper into the stories that captivated you.
With less than two months to go before Election Day, the Radiotopia podcast “This Day in Esoteric Political History” invites you to a live taping to relive the out-of-nowhere moments that radically changed past presidential races and to discuss whether shocks can actually shake things up among today’s polarized electorate. With so many unpredictable news events already in 2024, are we still in for an “October surprise?”
Hosts Jody Avirgan (“What Now with Trevor Noah,” TED, FiveThirtyEight), Nicole Hemmer (Vanderbilt University) and Kellie Carter Jackson (Wellesley University) will be joined by special guests to take you through the history of October surprises, talk about the 2024 race as it enters its final month and have a little fun — we promise.
