#103: Spring Is Coming?

Futuro Media
About this episode

Winter is ending... we think. Julio and Maria do a little spring cleaning and dig into some of the latest news with Terrell Jermaine Starr, senior reporter at The Root, and Justine Calma, fellow at Grist and The Investigative Fund with The Nation Institute. It's been six months since Hurricane Maria struck Puerto Rico, so we discuss where the recovery stands, the federal response (or lack of) and the badass Boricua women helping to rebuild the island. We also talk about what to make of the latest Trump saga, including the Russia investigation and of course, Stormy Daniels. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
