Episode 39: Sinclair Weighs In, As Biden Drops Out

Liss’N Kristi

This week, we're joined by our Political Correspondent Sinclair Schiller, to examine the increasingly chaotic terrain of the American election year, as Donald Trump survives an assassin's bullet, and Joe Biden drops out.

Sinclair gives us the younger perspective as she prepares to go to Emory University.

Among the topics: How could the Secret Service let this happen? Is 250 years enough for a dynasty? Why does Kristi have a thing for JD Vance? And what happened when she met Bill Clinton? Many updates to come, as we figure out which is the real anti-democracy party, and social media invents ever more crazy conspiracies.
