2Political Podcast Episode 115
2Political Podcast Episode 115 is now available. You can listen to it or download it from the podcast site, 2political.com. You can leave comments there as well as download or listen to any episode (you can access the five most recent episodes from the list on the right side of my blog).
Arthur finally found time to edit this episode! The Powerball lottery drawing in the USA hadn't happened yet when we recorded, so we begin today talking about that first. Then we turn to the deaths of Natalie Cole and David Bowie. Arthur wonders: Should Bowie have told his fans he was terminally ill?
We also talk a bit about the whole "Is Ted Cruz really eligible to run for president?" thing. There actually are legitimate questions, but we talk mostly about the broader implications of those questions. That leads to more general talk about the primaries and polling.
Everyone’s welcome to leave a comment (agree or disagree!).
