## Resource

Happy "Hump Day," "RevFam"! Today on the show, John is in D.C. -- to offer our podcast following a tour of The Great American Fair! John goes from state exhibit to state exhibit, exploring what each has to offer and showcases to visitors. Next, John begins a conversation with (Dr.!!!) Jill Biden's former press secretary, Michael LaRosa -- but when John's phone overheats and shuts off, Dan takes over . . . and chats extensively with Michael about his party's ideological divide and what he admits is his own, evolving philosophy. Michael really opens up, and his answers are most intriguing! You won't want to miss what he has to say!
