Mica Soellner, journalist for The Washington Times, has been paying attention to Missouri. A Mizzou J-School Graduate, Mica's connections to the region and the current rise of progressive candidates have drawn more of her attention to the often overlooked State of "Ol' Missouri, Fair Missouri" - Mica's coverage of Josh Hawley (R - Senate) pulled Adam Sommer's attention and this episode is a chat stemming from that article, and talk about dynamics in modern Missouri politics with the rise of Gen Z progressives like Ray Reed, the "populist" appeal of Lucas Kunce, and all the way to Mica's preferred pizza in Columbia, MO.
