This week's episode is an overview of what it means to campaign and how to become a candidate. We hear from Matthew, James, and Austin as we discuss the basics of campaigning, understanding the requirements to become a candidate and how local, state and federal campaigns aren't all that different but very much not the same. 

This week's current events include the trial of Kim Potter, the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell, a diplomatic boycott of the Winter Olympics, 7 dead in a Moorehead, MN home, the NHL on pause due to Omicron variant concerns and an update on the Biden Admininistrations Build Back Better legislation.
