A week after Russia invaded Ukraine, in March 2022, a host of the British podcast “The Rest Is Politics” explained what it was like to be in the midst of such a major international crisis. The podcast, known for its in-depth political analysis and lively discussions, has gained a significant following in the UK and is now set to expand to the US. Hosted by Anthony Scaramucci and Katty Kay, the American edition promises to bring insightful conversations about politics to a new audience.

The News Agents' Maitlis will present its general election results coverage alongside Alastair Campbell and Rory Stewart, further solidifying the podcast's reputation as a go-to source for political commentary. With a mix of seasoned journalists and political insiders, "The Rest Is Politics" offers a unique perspective on current events and policy debates.

In a recent review of "The Rest Is Politics: US," critics noted that while the podcast's British version had been a hit, the American edition fell short. Some criticized Kay for being too serious, while others found Scaramucci's approach lacking in depth. Despite these criticisms, the podcast continues to attract listeners eager for nuanced discussions on US politics.

Anthony Scaramucci, the former White House Director of Communications, is making a foray into podcasting with the launch of the American edition of "The Rest Is Politics." With his insider knowledge of Washington politics, Scaramucci is poised to offer unique insights into the inner workings of the US political system.

As part of its General Election coverage, Channel 4 will air episodes of "The Rest Is Politics," featuring discussions hosted by Alastair Campbell and Rory Stewart. This move further cements the podcast's reputation as a must-listen for those interested in political analysis and commentary.

Former White House communications director revealed that Donald Trump dislikes preparing for debates during an episode of "The Rest Is Politics." The podcast's ability to provide candid insights into the minds of political figures sets it apart from other political podcasts.

Alastair Campbell and Rory Stewart, two prominent political figures, will co-host "The Rest Is Politics," offering their unique perspectives on current events and policy debates. The podcast's diverse range of hosts ensures that listeners are presented with a well-rounded view of the political landscape.

Channel 4's decision to air episodes of "The Rest Is Politics" in the run-up to the general election speaks to the podcast's growing influence in the political sphere. With its engaging discussions and informative analysis, the podcast has become a trusted source for political commentary.
