Episode 157: Shocking, Not Shocking
Governor Gavin Newsom eases COVID restrictions, but he’ll have a tough time persuading his allies in the teachers union that it’s safe to reopen schools.
Governor Gavin Newsom eases COVID restrictions as the recall effort gathers strength, but he’ll have a tough time persuading his allies in the state’s teachers union that it’s safe to reopen schools. Kiss frontman Gene Simmons leaves California for income-tax-free Washington, John Sutter was a very bad man, Kevin Faulconer’s bungled effort to move left, and Henry “Hank” Aaron is an American hero. Bonus: Will and David go deep on one powerful police union’s readiness to smear its political enemies by misusing the alleged victim of a 2015 rape. Music by Metalachi.
