About this episode

Senate Majority Leader, Charles Schumer, stops by to tell his story of what went down on 1/6 for the first time in full detail. Then chairman of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, Ben Wikler, tells us the details of one of the most crucial states in the midterms and why you should focus your attention there. But the fun really starts at the top of the show when Editor-In-Chief of The Recount, Slade Sohmer, stops by to talk about all the lunacy of the recent senate debates.
