Summary

With less than two weeks until Election Day, editor-at-large of The 19th* Errin Haines joins Sam to talk about news coverage leading up to the most significant election in recent memory and whether or not shy voters will make a surprising difference. They talk about the importance of being open to the best idea in the room and how Errin sticks to a decision once she’s made it—unless it’s for a last-minute flight change—and how the biggest decision of her life was actually made for her—when her mother adopted her as a baby.
