Jumping The Gun Again?

First of all they’re jumping the gun again. Learn more in Jumping-The-Gun-On-2020-Bob Davis Podcast 958.

Secondly I don’t care who wins the presidential election in 2020.

Leaps Of Faith

However I can’t ignore the leaps of faith when it comes to candidate preference polls in this election.

There Are Limits

In other words there are limits to the conclusions to be drawn from political polling.

Bob Davis Podcast Coverage Of Election 2020

Certainly this has been the subject of more than one political podcast this year.

Battleground State Review Series

Consequently it’s time for another review of the polls in the battleground states.

Even more paying special attention to balancing breathless predictions about ‘who’s going to win’.

Too Many Factors For Predictions

Most importantly there are too many factors to consider a prediction about the outcome of the vote in these battleground states.

But That Doesn’t Stop The Media

In addition it sure looks to me like media is jumping the gun. Again.

And in a world where everything one candidate does is right a proper and everything the other does is wrong and misguided, I am not surprised.

Non Partisan. No Attacks. No Defense.

Finally I don’t seek to defend or attack either mainline party candidate.

Blind Spot

Instead I point out a significant blind spot with almost all media in the United States in this election year.

Don’t Know What Will Happen November 3rd

In conclusion we don’t know what the outcome of this election will be. I think it is very difficult to predict given the many moving parts this year.

New Ballot Wrinkles

For example, absentee ballots, early voting and so on.

Balanced Coverage

To sum up I have been producing balanced coverage of these polls. That includes explanations how on they work and their limitations.

Listen to Jumping-The-Gun-On-2020-Bob Davis Podcast 958 for some poll analysis without predictions.

Tough-Decisions-Ahead-Bob Davis Podcast 957

Tough Decisions Ahead

These days it seems like tough decisions are ahead for everyone. Me too. Let’s talk about it in Tough-Decisions-Ahead-Bob Davis Podcast 957.

Things Aren’t What They Seem

First of all the truth is things aren’t what they seem. At least that’s my takeaway.

When The Going Gets Tough

Second of all when the going gets tough, decisions have to be made.

Normal People Take The Brunt

Most importantly normal everyday people are the ones that struggle the most with choices.

Ranches, Road Trips and Renters

I can’t tell you how many people I know who have told me about some plan to move to a ranch in New Mexico, go out on the road, or take in renters.

More Stimulus?

Even more there’s talk of more stimulus and government spending. And here I thought the economy was going strong.

A Sea Of Nonsense

I say we’re living in a sea of nonsense. I’ve already talked about how useless political content is in a world awash with speculation and ‘experts’ at every turn.

Turning A Blind Eye To So Called Coaches

In addition what about the nonsense these so called ‘coaches’ are spewing on social media.

Content Has To Change

I’ve also certainly talked about how I can change my own content in that regard.

One Spectacle After Another

Meanwhile with so many ‘one day stories’ all the copycat content about the debates seems silly. Especially with the spectacle of the president’s back and forth with Covid-19 and the hospital over a recent weekend.

Back To Those Tough Decisions

Above all we’re living in a time when soon most of us will be forced to make tough decisions.

In Tough-Decisions-Ahead-Bob Davis Podcast 957 I wonder how my listeners and subscribers approach those decisions.

My Experience

Further I tell a few stories I’ve gleaned from my experience and from others.

Curve Balls and Wild Pitches

Sometimes life throws curve balls.

Similarly I have to wonder if we’re about to receive the mother of all wild pitches.

In conclusion how do we make those tough decisions?

So-Over-Political-Talk-Bob Davis Podcast 956

So Over Political Talk

Firstly I am so over political talk. Learn more in So-Over-Political-Talk-Bob Davis Podcast 956.

It’s Wallpaper

What used to be refreshing and unique in media has finally become wallpaper.

Life In A Graphic Novel

Secondly a recent ‘presidential debate’ makes our political and real life feel like we’re in a graphic novel.

Guess What? The Old Guy Next Door Is A Political Expert Too!

Everyone has suddenly become a political expert and wants to share it with the world.

Check Out My FaceBook And YouTube Feed!

Megyn Kelly’s gonna share her ‘Predictions’ of ‘what will happen in the debate’.

So are the guys at Vanity Fair and CNBC! Stay tuned! Like and Share!

News Is Now Opinion, Right?

In the same vein the next day’s headlines are all opinion screeds from the penguin pundits.

This is not news.

What A Joke!

Seems like our current political system has produced the worst candidates in history.

No Joy On Election Night?

Above all we don’t even know if there will be a result on election night!

Talk Talk Talk

But everyone keeps talking about it.

As a result So-Over-Political-Talk-Bob Davis Podcast 956 talks about what happens one kind of content saturates a medium.

Turn On…Tune Out

People start tuning it out.

And turning it off.

What’s The Point? Clicks And Views!

Finally I have to ask. What’s the point? Who’s minds will be changed?

Frustrating, Exhausting and Boring!

In conclusion I like this podcast because of the obvious level of my frustration.

Magpies

I think much of our frustration and angst as a nation is due to all these magpies squawking on the power lines.

Time To Take Action

Most importantly I am certainly going to take some steps in the near future to further evolve the content of my podcasts. More about that in the future.

Radio Stories and Shout Outs

Meanwhile join me on a walk and talk. I’ll tell some radio stories and a few shout outs. In addition I’ll do my best to bring some clarity to this insanity.

Back to the graphic novel.
