About this episode

The gang discusses the legacy and history of America as it celebrates its 250th anniversary. Are some of the more brutal chapters enough to outweigh the good the USA has brought to the world, or is it worth giving these first 250 years a failing grade? After, the group turns to the ongoing rise of the DSA. Fresh off some big primary wins in NYC and Colorado, who should be the most overjoyed at these recent successes: Democrats, Republicans, or simply the DSA themselves?
