Hegseth Impeachment, Chinese Spies, and Three Incoming Politicians On Our Playlist
2026-11-10 | 44 mins.On today's Happy Hour, Michael, Anna and Anthony are breaking down all the latest in the Pete Hegseth Impeachment filings from outgoing Congressman Thomas Massie, and what this all means for other disgraced cabinet officials as we head into the new heavily blue incoming Congress. And we couldn't help ourselves in discussing the Nvidia CEO affair scandal with a reported Chinese spy. Finally, we’re bringing you not one, not two, but THREE incoming Politicians on Our Playlist list week: an Air Force vet and nurse practitioner who toppled a 12-term incumbent, Sticker Mule’s rap-album-dropping, Trump-statue-gifting congressman-elect, and a Montana smoke jumper ending a 32-year Democratic drought. Plus, the hot politician calendar we absolutely should have made already.

They are the Senate race in New Hampshire, featuring Chris Pappas, the House race in NY's 17th, featuring Mike Lawler in possibly the tightest midterm race in the country, and finally the open House race in Texas' 23rd that was vacated earlier this year by Tony Gonzales. And through it all, we ask, just how big do we think this inevitable blue wave is going to be?
