This is the first really good news I've had all day. Thank you. This looks like a terrific podcast, and it's good to see congressional leaders who look like normal folks, not like department store mannequins.

Millie Polli Haskell...Reporting-first, Simon, I did get to see the live Conversation with the Two Reps. Veasy and Landry. Looks like it will be an interesting Podcast. And, I thoroughly enjoyed You and Governor Newsome. You make a good team! As I said, the last time you were together you were both Perspicacious! (I love that Word) I called both Sen. Rick Scott and Rep. Luna's offices and Demanded they Act upon Our Four Part Agenda! Believe Me, I was Very, Very Loud. But no live people. I am also very happy that the Media are finally talking about Trump's health. Both Physical but more Mental!!! 25th Ammendment???

Hi Simon,

Great podcast! I think Marc may be right that the Progressives do tend to get more airtime and attention, so I liked getting their perspective. Will definitely check them out and I look forward to you bringing them back.

Self reporting: I was preoccupied for awhile putting together a two part One Million Rising training for our local Indivisible chapter. It was quite successful in bringing new people together to learn about noncooperation actions they could take individually and as a group, to build community, and to brainstorm suggestions they had as well.

I've also been making my phone calls a lot recently and pushing one of my VT senators to fight louder and harder. How would you like to be the other senator in Bernie Sander's state?!?

Every day, as I face the horrors of this regime, I am so grateful that I cut my activist teeth on Hopium Chronicles. Reading and watching Simon, and reading the invaluable comment section, has absolutely helped me to cultivate an unshakeable attitude of hope and belief in action. Thanks Simon, and all of you fine folks!

I should be atoning, but I just listened to Trump, and in a way that's atoning, and he said there's never been anything like it in the history of medicine, and that the cost has dropped by 1000%.

Please, someone, knock me in the fucking head so this makes sense.

Well BeeBee…. This is not the first time Mr Champion of All Unrepentant Innumerates has promised to pay us for taking medicine. Maybe he really means it!

Did anyone else notice weird feedback (noise) a few times? It almost sounded like a very loud bubbler.

Thanks to the 3 of you and the various aids. I had to chuckle when I saw the 1 Reps. Ted Lasso tattoo. We need more Ted Lasso fans in Congress. If you have never seen the show, don’t ask. Just watch. Then read the book called How to Be a Lioness Instead of a Panda.
