Back in the Lab and Nothing Is Normal

from The Politics Lab · host Philip Barker

This week, Bill and Phil reflect on the 25th anniversary of the September 11th attacks and consider how that day changed American politics and the world. Then, after more than a month away from the lab, they take stock of an American political landscape that somehow seems even stranger than when they left it—asking whether we have become so accustomed to the abnormal that we no longer recognize just how extraordinary it has become. And finally, they turn to the truly important questions of our time with another round of What’s More Stupid?
