With today's episode, our ability to stick to the Skywalker Saga ends - so long, JJ Abrams, and honestly good riddance to Rise of Skywalker.

Welcome listeners! In the words of Speaker Nancy Pelosi, I wish I could say good (afternoon), but it is not one. We recorded this week’s episode two days ago as the US Senate passed the Republican budget that will rip healthcare away from 17 million Americans and raise the price of groceries, housing, and energy — all to give your money to swampy concentration camps in Florida and new tax breaks for billionaires.

If you’re mad as hell, join us. We’ll keep a spotlight on this dangerous and harmful budget for the coming weeks, and if you want to do something about it in the short term, join us in Virginia where we have elections in just over 4 months and can send a message to these corrupt Republicans.

On today’s episode we cover both the lows of the Republican budget (there are no highs, come on) and welcome Virginia Del. Josh Thomas to the pod to discuss his fight against data centers.
