Jon, Jon, Tommy, Dan and special guests are bringing the pod to ACL Live at The Moody Theater for a live, no-bullshit conversation about politics, the press, and the challenges posed by the Trump presidency.

JON FAVREAU
Jon Favreau served as Barack Obama's head speechwriter from 2005-2013, a role that was far more senior and influential than Jon Lovett's. Since leaving the White House, Favreau has spoken about politics and speechwriting to audiences throughout the world, written for publications like The Daily Beast and The Ringer, and started a political podcast with three of his Obama friends in the ideologically diverse bellwether of Los Angeles, California. Jon grew up outside of Boston and graduated from the College of the Holy Cross.
