About this episode
Yesterday Mitch McConnell spoke out against the Republican National Committee’s censure of representatives Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. Next, we have an update on the so called Freedom Convoy protests in Canada, before getting to a summary of the joint press conference regarding Russia and Ukraine. Meanwhile, multiple states have announced this week that they will be rolling back mask mandates. Then, we discuss Peloton’s own CEO stepping down (and also laying off 2,800 employees in the process). We share another interesting resignation, then close with why a pub that claims to be England’s oldest could close its doors because of COVID.
