Shownotes Transcript

We opened the show by asking listeners what issues matter to them this presidential election. 

We spoke again to John Deaton, Elizabeth Warren's senate challenger.

Then, the GroundTruth Project's Charlie Sennott discussed the escalating war in the Middle East and other world headlines.

NYU medical ethicist Art Caplan talked about renewed calls to abolish religious exemptions for school vaccinations and why there's a brain drain at the FDA leading to massive inspection backlogs.

There's a bull on the loose on North Attleboro (allegedly) after a herd escape from a rodeo over the weekend. We're obsessed with this story, but don't know why. So we ask listeners to text in with their thoughts. 

The Reverends Irene Monroe and Emmett G. Price III discussed which faith groups are most likely to vote for which candidate, and the outreach each campaign is doing to woo them.

We ended the show with a meltdown. Why, even as adults, are we prone to toddler-like outbursts when we get tired?
