Dispatch Live: 2024 and Life at The Dispatch

Watch the video of our weekly livestreamed conversation.

No, Steve and Jonah weren’t in a terrible time travel accident. Declan Garvey, editor of The Morning Dispatch, and associate editor Andrew Egger took the reins on this week’s Dispatch Live to discuss Missouri’s Republican U.S. Senate primary, Donald Trump and Joe Biden’s 2024 odds, and life as original employees of The Dispatch. What does Andrew make of his home state’s senate race? Will Biden even run again in 2024? And what was like being a reporter in the early days of the company? Plus, a debate over whether St. Louis or Chicago is a better baseball town.

    This was really good! Your elders could learn a thing or two.

    Declan said the thing that almost nobody was saying but should have been obvious about the whole “Is Trump going to announce… or not?” thing. Trump doesn’t have to actually announce. This is great for him. He stays in the news. He’s shrouded in an aura of mystery. The story is focused on him. Every few weeks he can play this card again. No work for him and all reward.

    It would make just as compelling and entertaining a show!

    Hats off to Steve, Jonah and the leadership of the Dispatch for doing something that most firms do very poorly, that being to develop talent! Well done Declan and Andrew…interesting and a lot of content, but presented in a nice, friendly and informal (yet well structured) way. And I am dying to see both Newsom and Pritzker run for national office. They both need to be humbled a bit, and a national run would do it. Plus I am dying to see Newsom eat a corn dog at the Iowa state fair!
