Episode Synopsis

This week, the beleaguered trio explores what happens when officials just refuse to leave office—whether it’s at the local level or on the national stage. Laura shares the story of West Chicago’s bizarre post-election standoff, Keith introduces a deceptively simple plan to fix the national deficit, and everyone wonders why we even bother pretending rules exist. Plus: missing keyboard keys, baseball Popes, and why your therapist might need a second session. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
