We talk about the only thing people are talking about. What to make of it all? Putting the Toomey Wreck in the context of a wider crank meltdown of late. We give props to John Fresolo for his civilian review board mea culpable. Then we talk about big bears and salty fish. The episode’s namesake comes from this guy. If you know you know and if you don’t then you will.
In today’s episode we’re working heavily off the timeline piece I put up the other day: “Sticky, sticky, sticky” on the through line between the primary election to the Toomey Wreck to the CRB vote to the upcoming debate (tomorrow) on whether to fine people for not having a home.
