We welcome C. Jarrett Dieterle to the show to discuss the gig economy and alcohol policy. Jarrett is a resident senior fellow at R Street Institute. As a textbook example of unintended consequences, we touch on the recent calamity caused by a Seattle law impacting delivery driver pay. What can be done to actually help gig workers? How can the right promote a pro-worker, flexible agenda? Finally, we touch on alcohol policy and the crazy laws that prevent you from your right to catch a buzz.

We welcome conservative royalty to the show with National Review's Charles C.W. Cooke. In advance of Charlie's upcoming talks in Spokane and Boise for the Mountain States Policy Center, we discuss the need for federalism and why Washington is no exception. We touch on the outlook in Congress and whether things will get worse before they get better. Transitioning ever so slightly, we dive into whether baseball needs a salary cap (Spoiler: Yes), technology in sports, and the outlook for sports in a changing landscape.
