Keisha Lance Bottoms, Georgia's governor race and a podcast that never stops
The former Atlanta mayor joined Joanna Coles for episode 779, while a round-the-clock stream of The Daily Beast Podcast became the channel's busiest video.
The Daily BeastStory of Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
This Is How Trump Can Face Ultimate Humiliation | The Daily Beast Podcast
On a usual day The Daily Beast pulls in close to half a million views. This week ran at about half that pace, even with fifteen uploads going out across its two shows.
The busiest video right now is not a single episode. It is "[Station] The Daily Beast Podcast 24/7," a live station that plays Joanna Coles' episodes one after another, around the clock. Four days in, it is drawing more views a day than anything else on the channel.
The freshest guest is Keisha Lance Bottoms. The former Atlanta mayor, now running for governor of Georgia, sat down with Coles to talk about Rick Jackson, the billionaire in the race she calls a Trump wannabe. Coles also pressed her on the collapse of the Fani Willis case and on her time inside Joe Biden's White House. Two days old, it is close behind the station.
Michael Wolff's "10 Things that Terrify Trump Most" is still moving too. A Putin episode with Hugh Dougherty and Allison Quinn more than doubled its first-day total. Among news channels close in size, most are running below their usual pace, and only Fox News Clips and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty added more views over the week.
