This podcast is a feature of the extensive www.SoDoesItMatter.com Substack Newsletter (sign up for free).

We have two podcast feeds. This one: So Does It Matter, SPOKEN is where content from our Substack, where longtime California conservative strategist Jon Fleischman comments on politics, is uploaded in an audible format, so you can listen to it on the go!

There is another one: So Does It Matter, THE PODCAST features audio commentary, primarily interviews with people of consequence in California politics and policy, and monologues. Sign up for that here.
