That's Just Me, Though
That's Just Me, Though is a politics, culture, and lifestyle podcast hosted by Dr. Eugene Lee-Johnson—built on a simple premise: what you wear, who you love, how you spend a Friday night, and who wins a Senate race are all shaped by the same forces. Eugene brings a political scientist's depth and a decade in front of the mic to make those connections plain, without the lecture. Expect current-events deep-dives, culture that actually matters, and conversations with the people moving the work forward. It's serious where it counts, fun where it can be, and always honest—because that's just me, though. New episodes weekly: politics, culture, and lifestyle.
