The Choice: Meacham and Geer on 2024
The Choice, produced by the Dialogue Vanderbilt, is a four-part podcast focused on the key moments and ramifications of the 2024 presidential election between former president Donald J. Trump and current President Joseph R. Biden. Vanderbilt’s Jon Meacham and John Geer will blend history and political science to offer insights and context about this rematch of the 2020 presidential contest. One objective is to offer an evidence-based assessment of the election that rises above the typical kind of comments offered by the overly ideological news media. The second, and related, objective is to show how this electoral battle fits into the long arc of American history.

The conversation also turns to governing and what to expect over the next four years.
