Let's get into the indecision analog zone.

Wait, guys, can we, um, get rid of that hyphen?

Limited term elections are a few months away,

and everyone knows the best way to reach young voters is through social media.

That's why politicians like Senator Joni Ernst are cranking out content,

and it's going about as well as you think.

There is a McFlurry of folks that are rushing to the Golden Arches to feast on fast food, paid for with food stamps provided by Snap.

It may sound crazy, but I'm not McRibbing you.

Your kids are going to stop talking to you.

Also, nothing says I've definitely been to McDonald's, like pairing the visor with vintage Chanel.

But of course, aging Republicans would struggle with social media.

Democrats, on the other hand, also struggle with social media.

I know I should sleep, but the voices in my head go.

That's the Lady Gaga song that uses real words.

But if you watched those cringe influencers and thought to yourself, I wish this was longer, then you're in luck, because politicians everywhere are getting into the podcast game.

Take Tim Burchett, Republican Congressman and King of the Hill character, who I'm sure has a podcast that delivers the gravitas and stature worthy of a US Congressman.

Welcome back to another episode of Tennessee Talks.

Today, I'm very much honored to be joined by my good friend Bobby Alloway, who owns Alloway's Hot Rod Shop.

East Tennessee native, my good buddy Randall Turkey McNew.

Turkey, thank you, brother, for being here.

And we got here, uh, Tater is Boy who's with us.

Do their boy green bean casserole have a scheduling conflict?

OK, why is the guy in the suit in the lawn chair,

and Tater and Turkey are in the high-back leather chairs?

The camera guy's like, hey, you want me to crop out their bare feet?

People come for the Tater, but they stay for the toes.

But Republicans aren't the only ones racking up tens of listeners on the internet.

The Democrats have their own lightning in a bottle.

Andy Beshear, the governor from my home state of Kentucky, make me proud, Andy.

Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Andy Beshear Podcast.

To make sure that we provide that real show for you, we've made some ground rules.

Oh, God, you broke the rule while telling us the rule.

Oh, nothing is less authentic than you calling someone boo.

That's a word for Black women and gay men in 2011.

Why can't you just talk like a real human being?

Number two, talk like a real human being.

Now is the time for my Kentucky accent, where I talk about things that are going on that just aren't right, or in my accent, that just ain't right.

New people thought Kentucky didn't have robot technology.

Andy, you're the most popular Democratic governor in the country.

I am begging you, end your podcast before people discover your podcast.

Finally, let's move on from someone with no rizz to someone with no rizz, Ted Cruz.

He hosts the most popular podcast by a Republican, and it's got everything you never wanted.

When I was in high school, my, like, first date that I would take girls on was to James Coney Island.

And get, like, chili cheese dogs, because I can't stand people who are pretentious,

and it's impossible to be pretentious when you've got, like, cheese dribbling down your shirt.

Well, Ted, your shirt might have been wet, but I promise you your date was not.

I mean, no girl's going to go to second base with you when they just watch you go to third base with your hot dog.

But if you thought hearing Ted Cruz talk was insufferable, wait till you hear him saying.

Better settle down and get myself a wife.

My wife will cook and so forth for you, and come forth for you,

and go forth for you, and go forth for you, and nag at you.

Thanks for coming in, but we're going to go in a different direction.
