How did President Obama do in his first week?  How is the economy driving debate in DC and in our lives? What happened when the senior staff went to the White House for the first time? We know who's spending $350 billion through the stimulus package, but who's looking after our money? When it comes to spending stimulus money, why did former Labor Secretary Reich make inflammatory comments to Congress? It's politics brought to main street, it's policy made simple, it's PoliTalk: your weekly source for what's really going on in politics

What would you like to see President Obama do during his first 100 days in office? That is, if the inauguration will ever actually gets here (it seems like the lead up to this one will last forever).  Will you remember President Bush as a "single threaded" President, as Glenn  offers, or just a "total waste," according to Jeff? If you had $600 million dollars, how would you spend it? Would you give it to something like cancer research or disabled veterans, or would you  spend it on notifying people about the switch to High Definition  television? We offer up our own unique PoliTalk solution to this problem. Is the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas politically motivated? Is the cease-fire between the conservative columnists and Barack Obama politically motivated? Listen to Episode 21 to get the answer to these questions, and our reviews of The Wrestler and Defiance -- two must see movies. PoliTalk -- where politics, policy and good conversation meet.

Most people ease into the new year. At PoliTalk, we jump right into it. From the legality and ethics of the Burris Senate appointment, to the wisdom of the Richardson and Panetta nods to the morality of war in Gaza, there isn't an issue that Glenn and Jeff aren't afraid to tackle. But unlike the screaming theater that is pretty much every other political talk show, Glenn and Jeff offer up their brand of talk in a genuine, irreverent even humble manner. Rather than the next breed of political talk show, they're more like the “Car Talk” of Politics.  Tune in and then spread the word. Welcome to the next generation of political talk: PoliTalk.
