What's Next in US Presidential Race?

Evan Osnos, author of "Joe Biden: The Life, the Run, and What Matters Now," joins the show to unpack Harris’ speech and preview what’s coming up in the race. Also on today's show: Jaime Harrison, Chair, Democratic National Committee; "Job" playwright Max Wolf Friedlich and actors and Sydney Lemmon; musician, songwriter and producer Jack Antonoff Learn more about your ad choices.
