HuffPost Launches Podcast About Losers

Losers in politics, to be specific.

Screen Shot 2016-01-13 at 10.13.51 AMDespite what we think, The Huffington Post considers losers as actual people. That’s part of the rationale behind HuffPost’s new podcast — Candidate Confessional.

Candidate Confessional features conversations with political candidates who ended up losing. The show is hosted by HuffPost senior politics editor Sam Stein and investigative reporter Jason Cherkis. Confessional is edited by HuffPost Live producer Christine Conetta.

The first Confessional guest is Howard Dean. Upcoming guests include Michele Bachmann, Wendy Davis and more. Each will discuss what it was like to lose their respective elections.

“I see Confessional as a place for recovering politicians—and those still at it—to tell unvarnished stories from the campaign trail,” said Cherkis.
