Modern politics: so efficient, thought is now outsourced.

One can only marvel at the sheer efficiency of modern political discourse, now distilled to its absolute essence for the discerning, yet time-poor, consumer. Gone are the days of laborious policy debates or the quaint notion of understanding nuance. Now, courtesy of CNN, all the 'political news you need to know' arrives meticulously pre-chewed, digested, and spat out in a timeframe so brief it barely registers as a conscious thought.

Indeed, one might wonder if David Chalian, in his remarkable capacity as aural arbiter, isn't actually just dictating the results of the next U.S. election directly into listeners' ears. Why bother with campaigning, town halls, or even voting, when a concise daily podcast can presumably cut straight to the chase? This revolutionary approach not only saves precious minutes but also frees up significant mental bandwidth, which can then be dedicated to more pressing matters, like perfecting one’s sourdough starter or scrolling endlessly through cat videos. True democracy, streamlined for the attention-deficient age.
