Episode 19: Washington D.C. - “Justicia Omnibus”

Janet Varney and John Hodgman celebrate the first non-state and non-commonwealth  in the brief history of the podcast: The capital of the United States, Washington D.C.And if there’s one problem with the perception of D.C., it’s a failure to understand that it’s a real city with a lot of cool people who call it home. We try to push beyond the monuments and motorcade and make sure to highlight that.Plus we give a shoutout to everything from D.C.’s role in the straight-edge punk movement, the cryptids that (supposedly) roam its streets, and just what it means to be a mason. Plus, this place has a really cute official bird.Cover Art Photos provided by:Russell BurrellAlejandrina BurrellShaadee AhmadniaMarissa SerafiniProduced by Julian Burrell.Senior Producer at MaxFun is Laura Swisher.Find E Pluribus Motto on Instagram and TikTok.And send us a voice memo, message or photo about an upcoming state to [email protected].
