Description

On today's episode we discuss Texas Monthly's annual Bum Steer of the Year, which they gave to the Texas Democratic Party, Lucas goes on an old-fashioned rant about gerrymandering, and we dive into this month's OTW Book Club choice, Good Citizens, by Thich Nhat Hanh. You can read the Katherine Morgan essay from LitHub, "About That Wave of Anti-Racist Bestsellers Over the Summer...", which we chat about briefly at the end of the episode, here.
