Thanksgiving edition: Answering your political questions and talking politics with family

On this special Thanksgiving edition of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy dig into the listener mailbag to answer your top political questions. We’ll reflect on the biggest moments of a blockbuster political year, including insights into the 2024 election cycle, the state Election Board, and the economic outlook.

Looking ahead, we’ll address your questions about the next legislative session, the goals of President-elect Trump’s administration, and potential candidates for Georgia’s 2026 gubernatorial race.

Finally, producer Natalie Mendenhall interviews Dr. Drew Westen, a psychologist and professor emeritus at Emory, for advice on how to talk politics with your family this holiday season without losing your cool. Whether it’s reaching across the table or across the aisle, Dr. Westen offers tips to keep the conversation productive and civil.
