On “In the Arena,” Maine TV news veteran Pat Callaghan joins former Maine State Senators, Democrat Ethan Strimling and Republican Phil Harriman, to share their perspectives and experiences throughout this political season.
Listeners can expect expert analysis and engaging banter from three long-time political personalities. “Phil, Ethan, and I have always loved talking about politics and government,” says Callaghan about bringing their analysis to the podcast.
“We hope our experience can help people understand what happens in Portland, Augusta, or Washington and what it means in their lives. We try to find the lighter side when we can. Above all, disagree without being disagreeable!”
Stay informed throughout the political season with “In the Arena” from Channel 8 WMTW. New episodes of “In the Arena” drop every Thursday morning on WMTW.com and podcast platforms including Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, iHeartRadio, Pandora, and Spotify.
