## Resource

Joe Sudbay guest hosts for John. He dives deep into the troubling implications of the Supreme Court's actions under the Republican majority, and how these decisions threaten the very fabric of our democratic system. Then, he speaks with Madiba K. Dennie who's an attorney, columnist, and professor whose work focuses on fostering an equitable multiracial democracy. Her debut book, "The Originalism Trap: How Extremists Stole the Constitution and How We the People Can Take It Back" is now available. Joe highlights the stark contrast between the priorities of the Republican Party and the pressing needs of everyday Americans, particularly in light of rising inflation and economic hardship. Then lastly, Joe welcomes back "Comedy Daddy" Keith Price to talk pop culture and politics.
