Republicans in Nebraska considered U.S. Senator Deb Fischer a shoo-in for re-election in 2024—until Dan Osborn, a union leader and steamfitter from Omaha, entered the race. The senior incumbent had expected to coast to a double-digit victory but ultimately finished just 7 points ahead of her challenger. In this episode, Dan (Parsons) sits down with Osborn for a rare interview. Four months after his narrow loss, Osborn reflects on his campaign, discusses his ‘Working Class Heroes’ PAC, shares his thoughts on Bernie Sanders’ recent visit to Omaha, and hints at his own political future in Nebraska.
