Rep. Tim Reeder is one of two medical doctors serving in the NC House (the other is Rep. Kristin Baker).  The Greenville Republican talks about his career in emergency medicine, teaching at ECU, his work at a homeless shelter and the connection to public policy, and his decision to get into the hottest House legislative race in 2022.  

Skye and Brian also break down an epic week at the General Assembly as Medicaid expansion is signed into law by Governor Cooper, the sports wagering gets over a major hurdle in the House, and a veto override gets House members on edge.  

Plus, a House budget is unveiled, an announcement for governor, #TOTW, participation trophies, and more in #ncpol.
