This week, Josh and David dive into an ongoing dispute between the Alabama Democratic Party and national Democratic Party over the selection of delegates for the Democratic National Convention, where Vice President Kamala Harris will be nominated next week. The Alabama Democratic Party chairman claims that the DNC's selection of delegates is racially motivated, going so far as to call former Alabama Senator Doug Jones a "Confederate Democrat."

So Jones drops in to discuss his take on the fiasco and the Alabama Democratic Party. He emphasizes the need for diversity and unity within the party to build a competitive future.

Then Alabama attorney Jack Mooresmith discusses the Alabama Medical Cannabis Commission and its violation of the Alabama Administrative Procedures Act, which has prevented Alabama's medical marijuana system from going into effect.
