Pollercoaster is Crooked’s new home for exclusive in-depth analysis across the biggest national polls, latest voter trends, and closest races up and down the ballot. Join former White House Communications Director and Pod Save America host Dan Pfeiffer and a series of expert guests to break down the polls, unpack what they actually mean, and whether or not it’s time to hit the panic button.

New episodes drop weekly for Friends of the Pod subscribers. For more, head to crooked.com/friends (http://crooked.com/friends) to subscribe & listen.
