Happiest Hour

This week, Nick and I talked questionable Monopoly tactics, how big the world is and how we aren't sure what the qualifications to be a country are, the end of leaded gasoline use, prison food and teaching inmates to garden, and what one single mom in Nashville is doing to help children's' confidence.

Cheers!

Steve Taylor joined us for Happy Hour this week. Steve is a singer, songwriter, record producer, music executive, film maker, actor, and one of my favorite teachers from grad school. We talked about the apps we wish existed, making and funding the Blue Like Jazz film, his current projects, the Cold War, and of course, good news. Welcome to the Happiest Hour!

Fact Check for the week brought to you by us being human and wrong sometimes: 

• India is the world’s largest vaccine-producing nation, not Taiwan.
• If someone undergoes a transplant, it usually means both kidneys are shit but they are just trying to get one working one in there. End-stage renal disease is really the one reason why they transplant.
