We're back with, believe it or not, some good news this week. Spencer Ackerman, the national security reporter for the Daily Beast, joins us to talk about a couple small political victories. In Virginia, Danica Roem, a trans woman and vocalist for the metal band Cab Ride Home, beat her opponent handily, and in Brooklyn, Justin Brannan of Indecision and Most Precious Blood became a city councilman. Join us as we talk politics, like that other podcast with the chapstick or whatever.
