This week we drag the man who has been at the center of establishment Democratic politics for decades: Rahm Emmanuel. Our friends David Spector and Rohan Padhye join us for this Rahm-com in which we hopefully shed some light not only why this guy sucks, but why centrism as an ideology is a losing bet for Democrats.
You can find David on Twitter at (@)spectordeforce
You can find Rohan on Instagram at (@)rohanpadhyecoolguy
Julia and Kate can be found at (@)OhJuliaTweets and (@)KateWillett

Reply Guys is a political comedy podcast brought to you by Mohanad Elshieky and Kate Willett, two nice people doing socialism. Each week, we are joined by journalists, comedians, leftist candidates for office, and activists to ridicule corporate greed, spineless politicians and online misogynists. We love you and appreciate your support!
