(84,711 posts)I loved the Discussion which is something we don't see on MSM in the TV World ...these days...nor from NPR.
Check it out. It's a good listen when "radio" works better when you are busy to listen to than being glued to Computer or TV.
Seriously....for "Serious Dems" you will find it fascinating.
