Grant Hermes

Booking Overview

This is a solo political news-analysis show focused on elections, presidential power, democracy, and major U.S. political developments, with occasional external expert interviews. Credible pitches include election-law attorneys, democracy and voting-rights researchers, intelligence or national-security specialists, political strategists, and investigative journalists with firsthand expertise; booking difficulty is medium because the show appears selective about guest relevance and favors authoritative subject-matter experts.
