Best Local Political Podcast in 2026: Pod Bless Nashville
The world doesn’t need more pontificating podcasts, but Nashville sure does. Jamie Hollin and Braden Gall have jumped into the city’s audio news realm with extended discussions on city politics and culture, informed specifically by Hollin’s experience as an attorney and former Metro councilmember. The two clearly enjoy dissecting weekly issues from all angles — Hollin often playing the curmudgeon — always finding their way to a well-reasoned, commonsense, legally defensible opinion. They pull high-profile guests, including Mayor Freddie O’Connell and former U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander, for intimate and honest dialogue.
