The Politics Bar
Weekdays at 6pm
Jody Hamilton and Shawn "Smith" Peirce are the proprietors of The Politics Bar, a progressive audio show that recreates the spirit of the old neighborhood bar where friends could discuss the news of the day without starting a brawl. Jody is an Emmy-nominated, award-winning media producer, actress, and radio host—daughter of TV producer Joe Hamilton and comedy legend Carol Burnett—who's made her own mark in media through "The Carol Burnett: Show Stoppers," "The Porkchop Playhouse," "From The Bunker" podcast, and her work as executive producer and fill-in host of "The Stephanie Miller Show". Shawn is a long-time national media producer and radio talent who's one of the few producers in U.S. political media to have worked on the left, right, and center, including more than a decade with "The Randi Rhodes Show" and stints producing "The Stephanie Miller Show," "The Bill Press Show," "The Laura Ingraham Radio Show," and "The Steele & Ungar Show" for SiriusXM. The show airs weeknights on progressive radio affiliates nationwide and is available on-demand through podcast platforms and Substack subscription.
