The only sources naming these three guests are podcast listings that repeat the episode description the claim was extracted from, so they are circular and not independent confirmation. Independent sources do not address the episode, and the AP piece identifies Scott Colom only as a candidate, not a podcast guest.

This claim is in the show notes, the publisher's own words. It counts against the post, once.

What we found

Context. Multiple podcast aggregator and platform pages (Amazon Music, Poddtoppen, Radio.es, Listen Notes) repeat the episode description naming Jennifer Siebel Newsom, Sarah Longwell, and Scott Colom as guests, but they restate the same claim rather than independently record it.[2][3][4][5][6]

Context. The AP article on the Mississippi Senate race identifies Scott Colom as the Democratic U.S. Senate candidate and does not mention any podcast appearance.[1]

Context. A separate Bittman Project listing mentions Jennifer Siebel Newsom as a guest on a different podcast, published October 5, 2026, and does not address the Psaki episode.[7]

Context. No independent source confirms or contradicts that Sarah Longwell or Jennifer Siebel Newsom appeared on The Briefing with Jen Psaki episode dated October 22, 2026.
