Comedians Kelly McCarron and Aida Rodriguez do stand-up comedy on the negotiations over the shutdown and border wall, followed by a discussion with Matthew Craffey - head of the California Log Cabin Republicans - and Mark Peterson, a UCLA professor of political science and public policy on the key factors, what a national emergency means, and more. Unexpected audience cameos, insight, laughs, and maybe a little gossip add up to a very fun and interesting show.
