    Episode 8

    Season One In an effort to uncover where corruption in American politics starts, The Probe goes deep inside an average high school student body presidential election. Listen as hosts Lisa Burton and Mary Beth Smith meet the candidates and their families, speculate on their motives for running, and unmask all the nasty aspects of running for office at any level.   Episode 8 Next Fall. After some shocking news in July, The Probe team felt it was essential to get back into the thick of things at FDRHS. We check in with each of the candidates and their progress one last time, and an undeniably hopeful tone emits itself throughout. Except for maybe when we talk to Vice Principal Hannigan. Was Thomas prepared to take office? Will Staci remain active in the student government? Where is Cori? Who really is August Tooley-Anderson? No really, who? It was a long summer.   Credits: Lisa Burton: Lisa Burton Mary Beth Smith: Mary Beth Smith   Thomas Buffington, Jr.: Clayton Margeson Staci Kramer: Shira Wilson Cori Wilson: Lauren Walker August Tooley-Anderson: Brian Holden Vice Principal Curtis Hannigan: Ryan Ben Adam Anderson: Chris Rathjen Artie Anderson: John Thibodeaux Meryl Kramer: Allison Ringhand Charlotte Buffington: Jessye Mueller Thomas Buffington Sr.: Tim Dunn   Produced by Matt Young, Lisa Burton, Mary Beth Smith and Hannah Parsons Editor: Hannah Parsons Original Music: Hannah Parsons Other Music: Final Cut Pro, iLife, and iMovie Sound Effects  The Probe Logo: Maxwell Hudetz   Special Thanks to Cards Against Humanity for allowing us to record in their beautiful space.

Episode 6 The Debate: A time-honored tradition that the 2016 US presidential election has taken a massive dump upon. This episode of The Probe explores whether the students [and faculty] at FDRHS fell prey to name calling and mudslinging as they took the debate stage. How will Staci answer to the accusation of skipping class? Why does Thomas keep taking pictures next to posters bashing Staci? Where would Cori get that many balloons? Why would a woman leave a man who was nothing but loyal to her? And the most burning question of all will finally be answered: Is August running?   Credits:   Lisa Burton: Lisa Burton Mary Beth Smith: Mary Beth Smith   Thomas Buffington, Jr.: Clayton Margeson Staci Kramer: Shira Wilson Cori Wilson: Lauren Walker August Tooley-Anderson: Brian Holden Vice Principal Curtis Hannigan: Ryan Ben Faculty Liaison Eliza Schroeder: Meredith Stepien Debate Audience: Allie Kahan and Max from the iO box   Produced by Matt Young, Lisa Burton, Mary Beth Smith and Hannah Parsons Editor: Hannah Parsons Original Music: Hannah Parsons Other Music: Final Cut Pro, iLife, and iMovie Sound Effects   The Probe Logo: Maxwell Hudetz Special Thanks to Cards Against Humanity for allowing us to record in their beautiful space.

How expensive is a sandwich really?   Credits:   Lisa Burton: Lisa Burton Mary Beth Smith: Mary Beth Smith   Thomas Buffington, Jr.: Clayton Margeson Charlotte Buffington: Jessye Mueller Thomas Buffington Sr.: Tim Dunn Glover Buffington: Matt Young August Tooley-Anderson: Brian Holden Vice Principal Curtis Hannigan: Ryan Ben Faculty Liaison Eliza Schroeder: Meredith Stepien   Produced by Matt Young, Lisa Burton, Mary Beth Smith and Hannah Parsons Editor: Hannah Parsons Original Music: Hannah Parsons Other Music: Final Cut Pro, iLife, and iMovie Sound Effects   The Probe Logo: Maxwell Hudetz Special Thanks to Cards Against Humanity for allowing us to record in their beautiful space.

This week: The anti-establishment outsider. Who is Cori Wilson? What about her upbringing made her want to run for student body president? Was it her biographer father? Her food scientist mother? One of her more nefarious classmates? Why does she seem to care so much more about the X Games than the Winter Olympics? The Probe leaves no stone unturned.   Credits:   Lisa Burton: Lisa Burton Mary Beth Smith: Mary Beth Smith   Cori Wilson: Lauren Walker Whitney Lamont-Wilson: Carly Olson Christopher Wilson: Luis Cortes.

Episode Two: As the four candidates in the FDRHS presidential election gear up for week one of their campaigns, The Probe team goes deep into what influences their decisions and platforms. While a lot of time is spent unpacking the beige, malleable oddball August Tooley-Anderson in the form of an interview with him and his parents, the real fun starts when Lisa and Mary Beth review early campaign tactics and social media interactions between students and their options for president. Who is the early front-runner when it comes to resources? What do a candidate's influencers tell us about their ability to lead? Why is Ladysmith Black Mumbazo so calming?   Credits:   Lisa Burton: Lisa Burton Mary Beth Smith: Mary Beth Smith   August Tooley-Anderson: Brian Holden Artie Tooley-Anderson: John Thibodeaux Adam Tooley-Anderson: Chris Rathjen   Principal Jonathan Benjamin Franklin: Eddie Piña Vice Principal Curtis Hannigan: Ryan Ben Faculty Liaison Eliza Schroeder: Meredith Stepien   Thomas Buffington, Jr: Clayton Margeson Cori Wilson: Lauren Walker Staci Kramer: Shira Wilson   Produced by Matt Young, Lisa Burton, Mary Beth Smith, and Hannah Parsons Original Music: Hannah Parsons Other Music: Final Cut Pro, iLife, and iMovie Sound Effect.
