Hey listeners, we’re in the homestretch of an extraordinarily consequential presidential election. I just want to take a moment to encourage you to be not just voters, but volunteers. In past episodes, I’ve mentioned www.Vote.org as the place to start to figure out your own voting plan. If you’ve already done that…now level up!
