The before, middle, and after of MSNBC's prime time coverage an analysis from Rachel Maddow and her colleagues on one of the high holidays for U.S. democracy, the State of the Union address. 

Dear Listeners, After Super Tuesday, Rachel joined a few of her colleagues on their respective shows to discuss the state of the 2024 race. First she spoke with Nicolle Wallace on Deadline White House, and later she and Alex Wagner joined Chris Hayes on All in. Taken together the segments amount to roughly a podcast-worth of audio, so with a not-very-pretty edit we present those discussions to you here. Enjoy!

Dear Listener, It's always tricky to figure out what parts of extended TV coverage to share as a podcast. In this case, it felt like the more interesting developments came in the back end of our six hours of live coverage, so this podcast is from roughly 9:30pm ET to midnight. Enjoy!
