This is a long, action-packed episode. First, Jessa and Nick announce their next contest/giveaway. (GO PARTICIPATE!!) Next, they cover the policy memo of recently elected Philly DA Larry Krasner and discuss why what some people are calling "radical criminal justice reform" makes a lot of sense.
This is a policy wonk episode. In case it is too long for you to hang in for, consider the following statistics:
1) In Philedelphia, it costs between $42K and $60K a year to incarcerate a person.
2) The average income of a Philly family is $41K annually.
Do a cost/benefit analysis. Seriously.
