Daily Mail Launches First US Podcast: Welcome to MAGALand: Inside Trump’s Second 100 Days

Daily Mail US today announced the launch of the brand’s first podcast focused exclusively on the US, Welcome to MAGALand: Inside Trump’s Second 100 Days. Hosted by the Mail’s DC Editor, Kelly Laco, and NY-based Chief US Reporter, Germania Rodriguez, the show will bring listeners the latest from the heart of the Trump administration in the way that only Daily Mail can: the gossip; the scandals; the fashion; the family; the accusations; and – of course – the biggest political news stories of the day.

The show will air three times weekly for short, snappy 15-minute episodes that give the audience the inside scoop on the world’s biggest, most powerful soap opera. The hosts will be joined by a regular cast of commentators, including Daily Mail columnists Kennedy and Maureen Callahan, and other Mail journalists in addition to special guests from inside Trump’s orbit, those critical of the new administration, DC insiders, outsiders, and more.

The launch of the podcast stateside builds upon the Daily Mail’s incredible momentum and rapid growth in the UK. Since appointing award-winning producer and broadcaster Jamie East to lead audio efforts, Daily Mail’s audio portfolio has expanded from a single hit podcast, The Trial of Lucy Letby, to a double-digit chart-topping slate, covering everything from celebrity lives and gossip to sport and politics. Mail podcasts have topped charts on both Apple and Spotify and have racked up over 33 million downloads to date.
