		<description>The Connector podcast brings you inside the Department of Government, a nationally acclaimed political science department at The University of Texas Austin. What does it mean to be part of a political science department? What kind of research is going on? What are the questions of the day, and how are we going about answering them and disseminating knowledge? The podcast brings together faculty and students to discuss their research and teaching from multiple perspectives. How does their research interact with current events? How are they innovating in the way they practice their professions and crafts?</description>
