Episode 1 - Hard Choices in the Dem Primaries - and homage to MSNBC's Ari Melber - by John P. Flannery

This is my maiden voyage - my first podcast.  Imagine it's Sunday when we're having this conversation.  I thought of it as a Sunday in NY where I once lived, the paper spread out, bagel and a schmere, with friends talking about the news.  Of course, this podcast is a monologue.  The news is the primaries - the dilemmas facing all candidates, the interference in the elections and what we can expect in the general election - and what we might do.  As a side note, but not breaking news, I pay some homage to my favorite on-air journalist and host - MSNBC's Ari Melber.  I'm hopeful that those who prompted me to start a podcast subscribe and let me know what they want.  John P.
