The Burner Seattle

We Hardly Knew You, Cathy Moore / Adam Smith is Only in his 20s


Listen Later

Tell us a secret!

Oh hay friends. For the Pod this week, Ashley Nerbovig and Hannah Krieg talk about Cathy Moore's resignation from the Seattle City Council and run through her greatest hits in her brief reign. Was she really an evil corporate shill, or just evil? Also, former lone socialist on Seattle City Council Kshama Sawant wants to head to the OTHER Washington. She plans to challenge Democratic U.S. Rep. Adam Smith for his seat.  Smith has taken to attacking so-called “new Left” extremists, saying Democrats are failing to govern well because they’re too focused on “concepts like ‘settler colonialism’ instead of on more immediate problems in people’s everyday lives.” So, the Burner gals play a game of "Who said it, Adam Smith or a Generic Republican?"
