YERRR – this week’s episode is politics turned all the way up. First, the guys from Pod Save America pulled up to chop it up on the chaos in D.C. with Trump policy choices and the Epstein files. Then Congressman Ro Khanna slid through to break down what’s actually getting done in Washington with his new Senate Bill about releasing the Epstein files, and his idea for the future of the Democratic Party.
