Mueller, She Wrote is a podcast with an all-female cast led by the pseudonymous A. G., a military veteran in a senior role in an executive branch agency. It mixes comedy, legal commentary and political analysis, from a liberal perspective, and centres on the Mueller investigation. The co-hosts are San Diego comedians Jaleesa Johnson and Jordan Coburn.
While the podcast is comedic in tone, it has been praised for capturing the minute detail of the Mueller investigation, and for a record of accurate predictions, and The Guardian has described it as "an indispensable source of curatorial journalism for many Trump-Russia watchers".
Personnel
The three hosts of the show since its inception are A.G., Jaleesa Johnson and Jordan Coburn. The name A.G. is a pseudonym, to keep this host's identity confidential, as she is a federal United States employee, and given the political nature of the podcast, it would be considered a breach of the Hatch Act were she to promote the show using her real name publicly.
Some episodes include interviews with a range of experts, journalists and witnesses to provide as much coverage and depth as possible to augment the basic reporting in the roundtable discussions. Guests have included law professor and author Seth Abramson, political journalists Marcy Wheeler and Scott Dworkin, ex-Obama Communications director Dan Pfeiffer, and Bill Browder, head of the global Magnitsky justice campaign.
