California Governor Gavin Newsom has announced a new podcast titled "This is Gavin Newsom," which will feature discussions with prominent figures from the MAGA movement. This initiative is seen as a strategic move in his campaign efforts leading up to a likely presidential run in 2028. His spokesperson highlighted the podcast's role in enhancing Newsom's communication style, aiming to directly engage with Americans on pertinent issues. This podcast follows Newsom's previous ventures, including another podcast and an upcoming book, reflecting his ambition to reach a national audience.
"Part of his strength as a communicator is to help show folks a way forward, a way to articulate a message, and a way to fight back," said Anthony York, a spokesperson for Newsom.
The podcast marks the latest in a series of publicity moves from a governor who is seeking to expand his audience nationally and is widely expected to enter the 2028 presidential contest.
Newsom's aides say the unpaid podcast gives the governor an opportunity to connect directly with Americans and share his perspective on the issues of the day.
In July, Newsom started a weekly sports and culture podcast, called "Politickin'," with former NFL star running back Marshawn "Beast Mode" Lynch and sports agent Doug Hendrickson.
