David Remnick, Hendrik Hertzberg, Ryan Lizza, and host Dorothy Wickenden appear on the very last “Campaign Trail” podcast, which went up yesterday. We know that Remnick was in Chicago for the big rally at Grant Park, and in the podcast he describes watching Obama from up close. Wickenden, having injured her ankle, gamely conducted the podcast by phone from her home—we wish her a fast recovery!

But most important of all, we now know the fate of “The Campaign Trail”! It will cease, as the campaign has and all good things inevitably must. The good news is that The New Yorker will continue to provide a political podcast, known as “The Transition” for the next few weeks, until they switch yet again to “Days of Our Obama” or the like after January 20. I’m relieved!
