The Bret Baier Podcast

On the inaugural episode of Bret's 'Common Ground' podcast, Bret shares a conversation with two Ohio voters just days before the midterm elections. The Republican and Democratic voters discuss key issues such as inflation, crime, abortion, and immigration surrounding the Ohio Senate race between Republican J.D. Vance and Democratic Congressman Tim Ryan. While the voters come from different perspectives and backgrounds, they find common ground on even the most contentious of issues in the midst of a hotly contested election, which could be critical in determining the balance of power in Congress.
