If you’ve ever wondered what a day in the life of a presidential candidate is like, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s new campaign podcast might be your fix.

“With Her,” hosted by Max Linsky of Longform, offers listeners a weekly opportunity to hear from Clinton, her running mate Tim Kaine and others on her campaign team.

The podcast is available on iTunes, and you can listen to it here .

In the first episode, Clinton and Linsky discuss her reflections on the Democratic National Convention as well as her 6:30 a.m. wake-up call and daily routineafter, of course, establishing proper protocol on how to refer to the nominee.

Clinton joked, “You can call me Hillary, you can call me Madame Secretaryyou can call me ‘Hey You!’” 

But many in the press don’t view the new podcast in such a jovial light. Clinton has often been criticized for avoiding press conferences , and the exclusives with Linsky only fan the flames.
