Kitesurfing to Oblivion w/ Owen Symes

Matt (@djtomhanks) and Tony (@Tony_Westside) sit down with Owen Symes (@Owen_Symes)  to discuss his book about the Obama years, Our Man In Washington.  We go over some of the highs and lows on both the foreign policy and domestic agenda, as well as the lessons the left should take away from these critical 8 years.  Was it all a cynical deployment of 'hope & change' rhetoric for weary Americans, or did Barry run up against very real material constraints on implementing a progressive program in the US?

There's also some insights about salvaging the country before climate change further wrecks our social fabric, and a discussion of the progress we've made since 2008.
