In this installment of Best Of The Gist, we listen back to Monday's Spiel about "unintended consequences," as they relate to the Dobbs decision. And that inspired us to dig up Mike's 2017 interview with Kurt Andersen about his book Fantasyland: How America Went Haywire, in which, Andersen bemoans a system on the brink.

Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara
