We have reached 35 Trillion in debt and we thought we should celebrate the milestone with a segment.

This is an intro to my police reform podcast that never came to full fruition. This piece was recorded 2-4-2021, a time when police reform was the topic of the day. At the time I was planning to do a podcast on police reform highlighting Sandra Bland, Daniel Shaver, Tamir Rice, and Breonna Taylor's cases. I finished the Bland segment (published as a primer) but never got the full piece done. I plan to use X spaces to have the interactions needed to round out the conversation and get that piece done. I decided to post this as it was interesting to reflect on where I and others were at the time.
