This is a big one. A few weeks ago Ezra Klein dropped his bombshell of a book Why We’re Polarized and we finally both finished it in order to discuss it. This book is a real tool to see through our politics of today and see what is actually happening and we hope you enjoy our discussion of it. But we also had our personal topics with Evan discussing the Invisible Man remake and Joe going in on sleep. And then finally at the end we discuss the state of the Democratic Primary with a notable exception that this was recorded before Former Mayor Pete Buttigieg suspended his campaign.

Everything to do with the Courts! Well no everything but Supreme Court reform has been a topic in and out of the Democratic Primary so why not discuss it? Besides that Evan gets into the Houston Astros’ sign stealing scandal and Joe talks the Aussie healthcare system.
