Beyond The Campaign
Beyond The Campaign™ is a conversation show about the people, experiences, and decisions that shape public life. Hosted by Michelle Glogovac—THE Podcast Matchmaker®, award-winning publicist, and Webby-nominated host—the show goes past talking points to explore how beliefs are formed, how power is experienced, and how real lives intersect with policy, culture, and community. Guests include candidates and elected officials, as well as journalists, advocates, creators, survivors, and everyday people whose stories reveal what leadership, responsibility, and influence actually look like in practice. These are candid, human conversations about why people step forward, what they carry with them, and how their choices affect the rest of us. Whether you follow politics closely or just want to better understand the world around you, Beyond The Campaign™ offers context, clarity, and connection — not just commentary. Michelle is also the host of Read The Damn Book™ and co-host of BURNT, part of The MLG Collective® Podcast Network, amplifying voices that matter. New episodes weekly.
