Sami and Alise are back to talk about night one of the Democratic National Convention. They start with their immediate reaction to how the virtual convention format worked, including which speakers exceeded their expectations, and what they want to see more of. Plus, they talk about the inclusion of Republican speakers like John Kasich (and his strange crossroads analogy). Next, they play several highlights from the likes of Bernie Sanders and Michelle Obama, explaining what was different about her speech this time around. Finally, they close the show with a conversation about the 100 year anniversary of the 19th amendment and an update on Nancy Pelosi’s efforts to stop Trump from sabotaging the United States Postal Service.
