Politician iPods

Listen 00:49:00

Guests: David Graham, Rob Sheffield

Hillary Clinton loves teen-pop.  Donald Trump is a classic rock guy. What does a politician’s favorite song or band say about their public and private self?  In this hour of the show, we’ll talk about the candidates for president, their running mates, and other prominent politicians, and what their musical tastes might suggest about their personality and even the way that they would govern. We’re joined by DAVID GRAHAM, staff writer for The Atlantic and by ROB SHEFFIELD, author and columnist for Rolling Stone.
