The Gist - BEST OF THE GIST: Jimmy Edition
Each weekend on Best Of The Gist, we listen back to an archival Gist segment from the past, then we replay something from the past week. This weekend, we are doing two from the vault. We hear Mike’s interview with Ben Bradford, whose podcast Landslide tells the story of the 1976 Presidential race, which was seminal in the invention of modern conservatism. And then we time warp back to 2016 for Mike’s interview with Meg Jacobs joins us to discuss the lasting political legacy of the ’70s gas crisis. She’s the author of Panic at the Pump: The Energy Crisis and the Transformation of American Politics in the 1970s.

The Gist - Posthumous Presidential Reappraisals
Services honoring former President Jimmy Carter begin this weekend. We assess his legacy, explore which presidents have rewritten history from the grave, and discuss the growing trend of historians being asked to act as present-day pundits with Lindsay Chervinsky, Executive Director of the George Washington Presidential Library and co-editor of Mourning the Presidents: Loss and Legacy in American Culture. Plus, as incidents of people being pushed in front of subways increase, one transit activist has proposed a solution so unconventional it just might work—or almost certainly make things worse.

The Bulwark Podcast - Jonathan Martin: A Resilient City
New Orleans is the most special city in America, but it's a place that also breaks your heart. Local leaders will have to reassure the world that the French Quarter is safe. Plus, Mike Johnson is bound up in a Gordian Knot, and Democrats are petrified of the wrath of leading progressive interest groups in DC— it's like the Dem Party's version of Trump's Twitter ire.
Jonathan Martin joins Tim Miller for the weekend pod.

The Gist - Brain Imaging Studies: Are They BS?
Brain imaging studies are often cited to prove a point about human behavior, but the claims surrounding them can be quite grand. Sadie Dingfelder is back to ask: Is that bullshit?

The Bulwark Podcast - David Frum: Sociopaths and Political Tribalism

Plus, Trump has tossed populism aside as he preps to be openly oligarchical, and the real threats TV journalists face.
