    How can Biden hope to move America forward in the coming presidency?  The next few months play a large role in how that question will shake out... will December, January, and February be the worst months of covid we have seen and will see?  Will we have a vaccine being ramped up towards mass production in this timeframe?  How will the Georgia Senate run-offs play out on January 5th?  Bob, Albert, and Matt mull over how these events will shape the incoming administration, discuss what tools Biden has at hand to accomplish his goals, and take a short detour into Bob's gastrointestinal woes.
