Jules and Sean reflect on 2021 and all the friends we made along the way. We cut straight to some of the aftermath of the Jan 6 riot at the capitol, just how vaxxed the US is at the moment, and why shitty employers can't find workers. We end with some inspiration about the liberal moderate from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and his letter from Birmingham jail. We wrap up with our Wetwired Podcast resolutions and good wishes for 2022.
