Rebecca Pearcey Returns to the Pro Politics Podcast
Instead of more punditry, Rebecca & I talk what really gets operatives animated...travel habits and tips...we talk airports, airlines, loyalty programs, best hotels, packing, rental cars & more.
It's Election Day 2022...so instead of more predictions and punditry, Rebecca Pearcey (a top Warren 2020 Staffer / VP at Bryson Gillette) is back to dive into what political consultants talk about most amongst ourselves...travel tips, hacks, and preferences. In this conversation, Rebecca and I discuss and debate best practices for aiports, flights, hotels, taxis, and all things being a political operative on the road. Hopefully this episode can be an enjoyable 51-minute escape during your Election Day (or aftermath) while waiting for votes to be cast and results to come in.
