For this episode, we return to US politics, with a spirited discussion on the US primaries that have recently taken place. We talk specifically about Donald Trump's hold on the party - and the efficacy of his endorsements. We then talk about Alberta provincial politics - and the race for who will be the new leader of the UCP (and, ipso facto, Premier of the province...for at least 5 months).
David is back in action for BookReport this week! He read (with his eyes) The Long-Legged House by Wendell Berry, which is a collection of writings written long ago, but very much applicable to our crazy world today.
