California Governor Gavin Newsom surprises everyone by launching a podcast with former NFL star Marshawn Lynch. Find out more about this unexpected collaboration!

California Governor Gavin Newsom has taken a unique approach to reach his audience by starting a podcast with retired NFL star Marshawn “Beast Mode” Lynch and agent Doug Hendrickson. The podcast, titled 'Politickin,' aims to steer clear of political topics, offering listeners a refreshing change from the norm. Newsom's decision to venture into the realm of podcasting just months before the presidential election adds an intriguing twist to his public image.

In a surprising move, Newsom withdrew his proposed anti-crime measure, citing a lack of time to add necessary amendments before the ballot deadline. This decision marks a significant shift in his approach to combating crime in California, leaving many questioning the governor's strategy. However, Newsom's ability to adapt and change course showcases his flexibility in responding to evolving circumstances.

On the entertainment front, Newsom's collaboration with Marshawn Lynch promises to bring an exciting dynamic to the podcasting world. The duo's discussions are expected to provide unique insights into their respective careers and personal experiences, offering listeners a blend of politics and sports unlike anything seen before.

As Newsom navigates the podcasting landscape, his decision to prioritize this new venture over a potential presidential run demonstrates his focus on connecting with the public in innovative ways. By choosing to engage with Lynch and Hendrickson in a non-traditional format, Newsom continues to redefine his political presence in a manner that resonates with a broader audience.
