The Mincing Rascals 7.16.25: Flooding in the US, Epstein, MLB All-Star Game & Emmys
Update: 2025-07-16
Description
We have a packed panel on this week’s edition of The Mincing Rascals. This week your Rascals are John Williams of WGN Radio, Eric Zorn, Publisher of The Picayune Sentinel, political pundit Marj Halperin, longtime Chicago journalist Cate Plys, Emmy-winning journalist Brandon Pope, and Austin Berg of the Illinois Policy Institute. The Rascals start the podcast by talking about the unpredictable flooding that continues to affect many areas in the U.S. and share their thoughts on whether or not the government should do away with FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency). Then, the Rascals pivot and discuss the Jeffrey Epstein case. They also touch on the MLB All-Star Game, Emmy nominations and more.
