Joe Biden’s New Podcast Is So Bad
The New Republic | April 10, 2020 | Alex Shephard

. . . [His podcast] Here’s the Deal similarly falls short of its other goal of humanizing Biden. Its most mocked moment involves Biden discussing his love of Fig Newtons, which he likes because he can “sneak” them without aides or family members chastising him. The story only makes him sound roughly 900 years old. It does, I suppose, get points for authenticity, the antithesis of Hillary Clinton’s “I keep hot sauce in my bag” shtick. But that’s the problem: The authentic Biden, a 78-year-old who loves Fig Newtons and Congress, seems increasingly divorced from life in America, and even more so in post-coronavirus America.

Other anecdotes were genuinely alarming, including Biden admitting that he “tries to get out of bed by 8 o’clock every morning,” as if he deserves a medal.

  1. I fully, completely and totally retired from work in the year 2008, and I take great pride in stating, I don’t even (in any way shape or form) try to get out of bed by eight o’clock in the morning. My question to Joe is…..WHY!?! Why would you do that??
