Hi Listeners! Scientology will be back next week, we promise! This week, Ash teaches us all about the Freedom of Information Act. Since this entire podcast is all about educating ourselves, we figured we'd bring you some info on how to make requests from government agencies for documents, and share the history of how FOIA came to be.
