Accountability

In California, everything is over the top—from the politicians who rule like kings, to the criminals who pillage and plunder at will, to the deeply ridiculous figures who bear witness to it all. You truly have to see it, hear it, and sometimes even smell it to believe it.   On Accountability, John Phillips and Randy Wang shine a spotlight on the madness of modern-day California. Covering California politics, crime, public safety, homelessness, elections, government spending, and the stories dominating California news, they break down the people, policies, and headlines shaping life in the Golden State.   Using their own words and deeds, John and Randy hold politicians, activists, bureaucrats, con artists, and flim-flam men accountable for the chaos they create.   If you've ever looked at a California headline and wondered, "How is this actually happening?" this is the podcast for you.
