In
this week's very special California episode, we talk Prop 22 and
the Gavin Newsom recall with three very special guests. Cali guys
Josh Olson and Dave Anthony don't just co-host The West Wing Thing
podcast. They're a wealth of information about the Newsom recall
effort and the very real threat posed by the leading Republican on
the ballot -- Larry Elder (a villain straight out of central
casting). But first, Brie picks the brain of Vice journalist Edward
Ongweso Jr., who has been closely covering Prop 22, which was ruled
unconstitutional early this week. What are the implications for gig
workers in the state, and how do right wingers keep winning with
regressive ballot initiatives (and Governors) in a state where
Democrats out number Republicans two to one? We have fun with this
one.
