Hacks On Tap
About this episode
*Disclaimer: The Executive Producer of this podcast is from the great state of Minnesota.*

This oh for cute week Axe and Murphy were joined by the great John Anzalone. In exciting but not at all predictable news, Minnesota has once again produced a Vice Presidential candidate. The Hacks discuss how Minnesota is the best state in the union, dontcha know, Walz’s unparalleled experience with state (a)fairs, how the campaign is pivoting to build the Wal(l)z messaging, and how the announcement could (purple) rain on Trump’s parade. Can the man from 10,000 lakes rise up to meet these high stakes as he enters skol-ding hot waters? Grab a pop, and a Juicy Lucy, and tune in!
