Description

Municipal government: a trap that catches those too incompetent, too corrupt, too incompetent even for national politics. And the greatest of these, the mayor - the highest political office one can hope to reach with a truly oppositional personality or a crack addiction. Mattie Lubchansky, Riley Quinn and November Kelly are teaming up to make a podcast investigating these mayors. From petty Bonapartes to flagrant mafiosi, these are their stories.

Every other week, we'll have an episode on the free feed. For more Mayoral goodness, check out the bonus episodes on our Patreon.

Seems like it could be fun, but the fact the plan from the start is "get half an episode for free, but you have to pay to get the full version" is such a spit in the face I'm reconsidering my patronage of of Trashfuture, KJB and WTYP.
