BEST OF THE GIST: Politics-On-A-Stick Edition

The Iowa State Fair is in its final weekend, and, along with deep-fried delicacies, politics was in the air. That reminded us of Mike's 2019 visit to Iowa ahead of the 2020 election, so we thought we'd replay his take on a political tradition that is very Midwestern. Then we rewind to this past Wednesday to listen to Mike's Spiel about the U.S. Women's National soccer team crashing out of the World Cup, and who (or what) was to blame.
