Liberal Bill Scher and conservative Matt Lewis meet in the rancor-free DMZ to hash out the week’s political events.
Matt and Bill discuss whether we can still expect to get relief checks and close out 2020 by assessing what they got right and wrong.
Bill and Matt ask whether Mitch McConnell’s acceptance of Joe Biden’s victory will reverberate, whether the emerging Covid relief bill will spark a new era of bipartisanship, and whether Pete Buttigieg’s new gig puts him on a path to the presidency.
What makes a Hanukkah song? Has the Right become crazier than the Left? And has Biden lost control of the Cabinet selection process?
Will Trump-loving Georgians boycott the special elections? Did GOP presidential hopefuls learn from 2016 how not to take out Trump? Did Biden make a mistake nominating Neera Tanden? How did Teddy Roosevelt shake up the corrupt New York police department? Plus: Bill launches a new history podcast, “When America Worked.”
