I found this podcast some time ago while trying to better understand the basic functions of government. It became a much-needed education as I expanded my engagement with the process, only to realize how much I didn’t understand. The episodes are well-produced, the information is vetted, and they keep the story moving at a fast pace. Thank you for the hard work you’re doing here.
