If you're hearing Bonnie Tyler's voice singing this week's title, that is no accident. I'm currently listening to her song "I Need a Hero" (which I "accidentally" typed as "her" first).

In this conversation, Jadi and I talk with New Orleans author (and one of my best friends) Maurice Carlos Ruffin about Kanye West and the rest of the presidential race.
