A quick programming note: This is the third of three episodes which were recorded before the pandemic began in the United States and the Democratic presidential debates were still going. My plan was to drop in original audio between our conversation, but then everything happened. I was concerned these would be lost episodes, but luckily since time is now a flat circle, you're free to enjoy this conversation, though without the original audio clips.

A quick programming note: This is the first of three episodes which were recorded before the pandemic began and the Democratic presidential debates were still going. My plan was to drop in original audio between our conversation, but then everything happened. The Indiana primary was moved back to June 2, so technically even though Joe Biden is now the presumptive nominee, these episodes aren't technically late. I was concerned these would be lost episodes, but luckily since time is now a flat circle, you're free to enjoy this conversation, though without the original audio clips.
