from Boston Public Radio Podcast

The full broadcast of Boston Public Radio from Thursday, October 18th, 2018. Will former deputy DNC chair and Minnesota congressman Keith Ellison lose his bid for Minnesota attorney general due to allegations of dishonesty, infidelity and emotional abuse by an ex-girlfriend? We discuss with New York Times reporter Farah Stockman. If you missed last night's gubernatorial debate with incumbent Charlie Baker and his challenger Jay Gonzalez, we caught you up and got your take on Baker’s stance on U.S. Senate candidate Geoff Diehl, who Baker first waffled on and then said he would vote for in a post-debate media scrum. Then, don’t mess with Texas. Getting schooled on how to interact with police is now a high school graduation requirement for teens in the Lonestar state — former sheriff and Mass. Secretary of Public Safety Andrea Cabral joins us for that and more on this week’s edition of Law and Order. Then, a break from the doom and gloom with a more uplifting topic — all about the transcendent powers of music with Mark Volpe, president and chief executive officer of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and BSO’s Artistic Administrator Tony Fogg. Then, it’s Harvard on trial. Former Secretary of Education Paul Reville joins us to talk about claims that the university’s admissions policies discriminate against Asian-American applicants. Boston Globe Columnist Alex Beam joins us for his famous explainer — and why he’s mad at millennials for “killing” American cheese.
