Introducing ‘The Run-Up,’ a Politics Podcast from The New York Times

First launched in August 2016, three months before the election of Donald Trump, “The Run-Up” is back.

Through conversations with colleagues, newsmakers and voters across the country, Astead Herndon will grapple with the big ideas animating the 2022 midterm election cycle — and explore how we got to this fraught moment in American politics.

Elections are about more than who wins and who loses. “The Run-Up” starts Sept. 6. See you there.

Previously, Astead was an integral part of The Times’s reporting on the 2018 midterm elections and the 2020 presidential elections, anchoring the coverage on Senators Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris.
