On today's 'BradCast':  It may be April Fools Day, but it's no joke that we are back! Last week brought a firehose of important and historic developments. Our old friends 'DRIFTGLASS' and his co-host of the Pro Left Podcast, FRANCES LANGUM, who is also Associate Editor at the Crooks & Liars blog, join us today to add actual context, depth and insight to all those headlines, and what it all means going forward. In a lively and insightful conversation, we cover a smorgasbord of big news -- from the MAGA GOP histrionics over averting a government shutdown to the latest on Donald Trump's many criminal and civil cases, his scammy, just-in-time public stock offering of his social media site, and his peddling of a Trump-branded Bible (both of which directly line his pockets). We also cover new developments in the Israel-Hamas war and Gaza, NBC's hiring/firing of Ronna McDaniel, a remarkable special election result in Alabama, and much, much more.
