Although I feel like I keep saying this, and it never makes any difference. Still, it’s a nice tradition, don’t you think? It’s often a chance for us to veer off the news-of-the-moment path and add a little something extra to the show, though we’re well past the sort of stability that would allow me to promise that to you. I mean, who knows? Trump could invade Florida to stop the vote counting, or make Ivanka Attorney General or something, and then we’d be stuck talking about that. I mean, I’m at least as prepared to talk about it as Trump is to do it. So, both sides, really. <a href="http://netroots-main-1.stream.creek.fm:8000/stream" target="_blank">Listen</a> right here at 9:00 AM ET! PODCAST LISTENERS: There’s a new podcast platform in town, and the big news is: <a href="https://about.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">this one pays</a>! RadioPublic pays podcast producers on a CPM basis, for listens on their native app (available for <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">iPhones & Androids</a>), financed by pre- and post-roll ads they insert. Not a bad way to support the show, with somebody else’s money! So if you’re a podcast listener, please consider <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank" title="">downloading the RadioPublic app</a> on your Android or iOS phone. Yes, you can still download directly from their site, or listen to the player embedded here at Daily Kos. But it’s listens in their app that count toward payment. Nothing changes on our end. It’s still Greg Dworkin, Joan McCarter, and even Armando. Plus also, me. And you! As always, we still want your voice on the air with us. Sit down with your smart phone or other electronic recording device and send us your stories and commentary to share with the audience. There’s no easier way to try your hand at podcasting, without all the hassle! Of course there’s no substitute for having your support via <a href="https://www.patreon.com/kagrox?ty=h" target="_blank">Patreon</a>, or one-time contributions via <a href="https://cash.me/%24kagro" target="_blank">Square Cash</a>. (And hey, if you want a cool trick for donating sorta-kinda cost free, get their <a href="https://cash.me/app/FLVKHBX" target="_blank" title="">cash.me app and use this share code</a> to get $5 in your account (plus $5 in mine) when you send your first $5 (to anyone)!

Okay. Just keep normalizing these guys, right? Sure. <a href="http://netroots-main-1.stream.creek.fm:8000/stream" target="_blank">Listen</a> right here at 9:00 AM ET! PODCAST LISTENERS: There’s a new podcast platform in town, and the big news is: <a href="https://about.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">this one pays</a>! RadioPublic pays podcast producers on a CPM basis, for listens on their native app (available for <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">iPhones & Androids</a>), financed by pre- and post-roll ads they insert. Not a bad way to support the show, with somebody else’s money! So if you’re a podcast listener, please consider <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">downloading the RadioPublic app</a> on your Android or iOS phone. Yes, you can still download directly from their site, or listen to the player embedded here at Daily Kos. But it’s listens in their app that count toward payment. Nothing changes on our end. It’s still Greg Dworkin, Joan McCarter, and even Armando. Plus also, me. And you! As always, we still want your voice on the air with us. Sit down with your smart phone or other electronic recording device and send us your stories and commentary to share with the audience. There’s no easier way to try your hand at podcasting, without all the hassle! Of course there’s no substitute for having your support via <a href="https://www.patreon.com/kagrox?ty=h" target="_blank">Patreon</a>, or one-time contributions via <a href="https://cash.me/%24kagro" target="_blank">Square Cash</a>.

We’re almost there. It’s the last day before what they’re still calling “Election Day,” whatever that means anymore. Greg Dworkin is back with us one more time before it all goes down. We won’t hear from him again until the votes are counted, so make the most of it! <a href="http://netroots-main-1.stream.creek.fm:8000/stream" target="_blank">Listen</a> right here at 9:00 AM ET! PODCAST LISTENERS: There’s a new podcast platform in town, and the big news is: <a href="https://about.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank" title="">this one pays</a>! RadioPublic pays podcast producers on a CPM basis, for listens on their native app (available for <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">iPhones & Androids</a>), financed by pre- and post-roll ads they insert. Not a bad way to support the show, with somebody else’s money! So if you’re a podcast listener, please consider <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank" title="">downloading the RadioPublic app</a> on your Android or iOS phone. Yes, you can still download directly from their site, or listen to the player embedded here at Daily Kos. But it’s listens in their app that count toward payment. Nothing changes on our end. It’s still Greg Dworkin, Joan McCarter, and even Armando. Plus also, me. And you! As always, we still want your voice on the air with us. Sit down with your smart phone or other electronic recording device and send us your stories and commentary to share with the audience. There’s no easier way to try your hand at podcasting, without all the hassle! Of course there’s no substitute for having your support via <a href="https://www.patreon.com/kagrox?ty=h" target="_blank">Patreon</a>, or one-time contributions via <a href="https://cash.me/%24kagro" target="_blank">Square Cash</a>.

And if all goes well, that means we get both Greg Dworkin’s and Joan McCarter’s voices on the fake air, to cover stories like the fake conspiracy to make fake accusations of rape against Robert Mueller, and the fake fake rabbi Mike Pence used at that rally. You guys really kept us on the ball yesterday, with some very, very on-point story suggestions. We looked like geniuses!

PODCAST LISTENERS: There’s a new podcast platform in town, and the big news is: <a href="https://about.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">this one pays</a>! RadioPublic pays podcast producers on a CPM basis, for listens on their native app (available for <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">iPhones & Androids</a>), financed by pre- and post-roll ads they insert. Not a bad way to support the show, with somebody else’s money! So if you’re a podcast listener, please consider <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">downloading the RadioPublic app</a> on your Android or iOS phone. Yes, you can still download directly from their site, or listen to the player embedded here at Daily Kos. But it’s listens in their app that count toward payment. Nothing changes on our end. It’s still Greg Dworkin, Joan McCarter, and even Armando. Plus also, me. And you! As always, we still want your voice on the air with us. Sit down with your smart phone or other electronic recording device and send us your stories and commentary to share with the audience. There’s no easier way to try your hand at podcasting, without all the hassle! Of course there’s no substitute for having your support via <a href="https://www.patreon.com/kagrox?ty=h" target="_blank">Patreon</a>, or one-time contributions via <a href="https://cash.me/%24kagro" target="_blank">Square Cash</a>. (And hey, if you want a cool trick for donating sorta-kinda cost free, get their <a href="https://cash.me/app/FLVKHBX" target="_blank">cash.me app and use this share code</a> to get $5 in your account (plus $5 in mine) when you send your first $5 (to anyone)!

I sort of have a plan heading into the show, which isn’t actually all that unusual for the last show of the week. But as always, I can make no promises to stick to the plan. I know you’re tired of hearing it, but this lunatic in the White House gets worse every week, and there’s just no telling what issues—real or imagined—could require our attention before the weekend. We’ll take a stab at it, though. <a href="http://netroots-main-1.stream.creek.fm:8000/stream" target="_blank">Listen</a> right here at 9:00 AM ET! PODCAST LISTENERS: There’s a new podcast platform in town, and the big news is: <a href="https://about.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">this one pays</a>! RadioPublic pays podcast producers on a CPM basis, for listens on their native app (available for <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">iPhones & Androids</a>), financed by pre- and post-roll ads they insert. Not a bad way to support the show, with somebody else’s money! So if you’re a podcast listener, please consider <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">downloading the RadioPublic app</a> on your Android or iOS phone. Yes, you can still download directly from their site, or listen to the player embedded here at Daily Kos. But it’s listens in their app that count toward payment. Nothing changes on our end. It’s still Greg Dworkin, Joan McCarter, and even Armando. Plus also, me. And you! As always, we still want your voice on the air with us. Sit down with your smart phone or other electronic recording device and send us your stories and commentary to share with the audience. There’s no easier way to try your hand at podcasting, without all the hassle! Of course there’s no substitute for having your support via <a href="https://www.patreon.com/kagrox?ty=h" target="_blank">Patreon</a>, or one-time contributions via <a href="https://cash.me/%24kagro" target="_blank">Square Cash</a>.

Not the Tuesday we’ve been waiting for. But that’s coming soon. And after that, well, uh… I guess Trump is gonna do a bunch of rallies and run around lying like a maniac.

PODCAST LISTENERS: There’s a new podcast platform in town, and the big news is: <a href="https://about.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank" title="">this one pays</a>! RadioPublic pays podcast producers on a CPM basis, for listens on their native app (available for <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">iPhones & Androids</a>), financed by pre- and post-roll ads they insert. Not a bad way to support the show, with somebody else’s money! So if you’re a podcast listener, please consider <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank" title="">downloading the RadioPublic app</a> on your Android or iOS phone. Yes, you can still download directly from their site, or listen to the player embedded here at Daily Kos. But it’s listens in their app that count toward payment. Nothing changes on our end. It’s still Greg Dworkin, Joan McCarter, and even Armando. Plus also, me. And you! As always, we still want your voice on the air with us. Sit down with your smart phone or other electronic recording device and send us your stories and commentary to share with the audience. There’s no easier way to try your hand at podcasting, without all the hassle! Of course there’s no substitute for having your support via <a href="https://www.patreon.com/kagrox?ty=h" target="_blank" title="">Patreon</a>, or one-time contributions via <a href="https://cash.me/%24kagro" target="_blank">Square Cash</a>. (And hey, if you want a cool trick for donating sorta-kinda cost free, get their <a href="https://cash.me/app/FLVKHBX" target="_blank" title="">cash.me app and use this share code</a> to get $5 in your account (plus $5 in mine) when you send your first $5 (to anyone)!

Meanwhile, it’s already Thursday, which means we only have two more days to get you ready for the weekend’s insanity. Help us, Greg Dworkin! You’re our only hope! <a href="http://netroots-main-1.stream.creek.fm:8000/stream" target="_blank" title="">Listen</a> right here at 9:00 AM ET! PODCAST LISTENERS: There’s a new podcast platform in town, and the big news is: <a href="https://about.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank" title="">this one pays</a>! RadioPublic pays podcast producers on a CPM basis, for listens on their native app (available for <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank" title="">iPhones & Androids</a>), financed by pre- and post-roll ads they insert. Not a bad way to support the show, with somebody else’s money! So if you’re a podcast listener, please consider <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank" title="">downloading the RadioPublic app</a> on your Android or iOS phone. Yes, you can still download directly from their site, or listen to the player embedded here at Daily Kos. But it’s listens in their app that count toward payment. Nothing changes on our end. It’s still Greg Dworkin, Joan McCarter, and even Armando. Plus also, me. And you! As always, we still want your voice on the air with us. Sit down with your smart phone or other electronic recording device and send us your stories and commentary to share with the audience. There’s no easier way to try your hand at podcasting, without all the hassle! Of course there’s no substitute for having your support via <a href="https://www.patreon.com/kagrox?ty=h" target="_blank">Patreon</a>, or one-time contributions via <a href="https://cash.me/%24kagro" target="_blank">Square Cash</a>. (And hey, if you want a cool trick for donating sorta-kinda cost free, get their <a href="https://cash.me/app/FLVKHBX" target="_blank">cash.me app and use this share code</a> to get $5 in your account (plus $5 in mine) when you send your first $5 (to anyone)!

But <a href="https://twitter.com/John_Hudson/status/1052500351570636800" target="_blank">not facts,</a> no one likes those. So, the Saudis <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/16/opinion/saudi-arabia-jamal-khashoggi-pompeo.html" target="_blank">don’t get the difference</a> between <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/pompeo-seeks-answers-amid-crisis-over-missing-saudi-journalist-1539690270" target="_blank">rendition and rendering</a>.

I’m exhausted already! The Big Family Weekend is over, and I need a couple days off to recover from it. But I’m not gonna do it! No! I’m gonna stay right here and let Greg Dworkin help me get back on my feet. He should have plenty to work with, too, given that “the president” keeps letting people interview him. Which is amazing. <a href="http://netroots-main-1.stream.creek.fm:8000/stream" target="_blank">Listen</a> right here at 9:00 AM ET! PODCAST LISTENERS: There’s a new podcast platform in town, and the big news is: <a href="https://about.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank" title="">this one pays</a>! RadioPublic pays podcast producers on a CPM basis, for listens on their native app (available for <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">iPhones & Androids</a>), financed by pre- and post-roll ads they insert. Not a bad way to support the show, with somebody else’s money! So if you’re a podcast listener, please consider <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank" title="">downloading the RadioPublic app</a> on your Android or iOS phone. Yes, you can still download directly from their site, or listen to the player embedded here at Daily Kos. But it’s listens in their app that count toward payment. Nothing changes on our end. It’s still Greg Dworkin, Joan McCarter, and even Armando. Plus also, me. And you! As always, we still want your voice on the air with us. Sit down with your smart phone or other electronic recording device and send us your stories and commentary to share with the audience. There’s no easier way to try your hand at podcasting, without all the hassle! Of course there’s no substitute for having your support via <a href="https://www.patreon.com/kagrox?ty=h" target="_blank">Patreon</a>, or one-time contributions via <a href="https://cash.me/%24kagro" target="_blank">Square Cash</a>.

Yes, you can still download directly from their site, or listen to the player embedded here at Daily Kos. But it’s listens in their app that count toward payment. Nothing changes on our end.

PODCAST LISTENERS: There’s a new podcast platform in town, and the big news is: <a href="https://about.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank" title="">this one pays</a>! RadioPublic pays podcast producers on a CPM basis, for listens on their native app (available for <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">iPhones & Androids</a>), financed by pre- and post-roll ads they insert. Not a bad way to support the show, with somebody else’s money! So if you’re a podcast listener, please consider <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">downloading the RadioPublic app</a> on your Android or iOS phone. Yes, you can still download directly from their site, or listen to the player embedded here at Daily Kos. But it’s listens in their app that count toward payment. Nothing changes on our end. It’s still Greg Dworkin, Joan McCarter, and even Armando. Plus also, me. And you! As always, we still want your voice on the air with us. Sit down with your smart phone or other electronic recording device and send us your stories and commentary to share with the audience. There’s no easier way to try your hand at podcasting, without all the hassle! Of course there’s no substitute for having your support via <a href="https://www.patreon.com/kagrox?ty=h" target="_blank" title="">Patreon</a>, or one-time contributions via <a href="https://cash.me/%24kagro" target="_blank">Square Cash</a>.

PODCAST LISTENERS: There’s a new podcast platform in town, and the big news is: <a href="https://about.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">this one pays</a>! RadioPublic pays podcast producers on a CPM basis, for listens on their native app (available for <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">iPhones & Androids</a>), financed by pre- and post-roll ads they insert. Not a bad way to support the show, with somebody else’s money! So if you’re a podcast listener, please consider <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">downloading the RadioPublic app</a> on your Android or iOS phone. Yes, you can still download directly from their site, or listen to the player embedded here at Daily Kos. But it’s listens in their app that count toward payment. Nothing changes on our end. It’s still Greg Dworkin, Joan McCarter, and even Armando. Plus also, me. And you! As always, we still want your voice on the air with us. Sit down with your smart phone or other electronic recording device and send us your stories and commentary to share with the audience. There’s no easier way to try your hand at podcasting, without all the hassle! Of course there’s no substitute for having your support via <a href="https://www.patreon.com/kagrox?ty=h" target="_blank">Patreon</a>, or one-time contributions via <a href="https://cash.me/%24kagro" target="_blank">Square Cash</a>.

But hey, maybe we’re turning a corner, here in Week 90 of The Presidential Apprentice! Maybe it’s The Big Pivot! Ha ha. Just kidding. Well, anyway, since we’re counting weeks, it’s just over four weeks until we get to put a dent in this dotard’s occupation of the Congress. OK, Greg Dworkin: Let’s get up to speed. I’m ready when you are. <a href="http://netroots-main-1.stream.creek.fm:8000/stream" target="_blank" title="">Listen</a> right here at 9:00 AM ET! PODCAST LISTENERS: There’s a new podcast platform in town, and the big news is: <a href="https://about.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">this one pays</a>! RadioPublic pays podcast producers on a CPM basis, for listens on their native app (available for <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">iPhones & Androids</a>), financed by pre- and post-roll ads they insert. Not a bad way to support the show, with somebody else’s money! So if you’re a podcast listener, please consider <a href="http://www.radiopublic.com/" target="_blank">downloading the RadioPublic app</a> on your Android or iOS phone. Yes, you can still download directly from their site, or listen to the player embedded here at Daily Kos. But it’s listens in their app that count toward payment. Nothing changes on our end. It’s still Greg Dworkin, Joan McCarter, and even Armando. Plus also, me. And you! As always, we still want your voice on the air with us. Sit down with your smart phone or other electronic recording device and send us your stories and commentary to share with the audience. There’s no easier way to try your hand at podcasting, without all the hassle! Of course there’s no substitute for having your support via <a href="https://www.patreon.com/kagrox?ty=h" target="_blank">Patreon</a>, or one-time contributions via <a href="https://cash.me/%24kagro" target="_blank">Square Cash</a>.
