Ep 865: Happy New Year + Remembering Gonzo and Jimmy Carter
It's our final episode of 2024 and the 100th episode of the year!!!
January 2025 marks our 15th anniversary of podcasting!
(We're off on Thursday and will return to regular podcasting on Tuesday, January 7.)
This episode pays tribute to the late President Jimmy Carter. It includes a deep dive into Hunter S. Thompson's 1974 account of Carter's influential Law Day speech in Georgia.
And we heap some love on JB Pritzker, as our governor stands up for the healthcare rights of pregnant women.
