After a week hiatus, the Rational Policy Podcast is back! In episode 5 of the show, your hosts Art Vandelay and Mike Coté delve into some of the major news topics of the moment, from foreign to domestic policy.

We start with some cultural commentary on the first two episodes of the new season of South Park, which has relentlessly (and hilariously) skewered the MAGA movement. Next, we move to the realm of international affairs, discussing the upcoming summit in Alaska between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. Then, we shift back to the home front, talking about two big political brouhahas: the federalization of DC police and the proposed mid-decade gerrymandering of Texas.
