With Otto away in Naples, Joe breaks down the biggest stories of the week here in Latvia including the latest developments in coalition talks, a failed vote of no confidence vote, more money allocated to health care, licenses finally to be required for electric scooters, more drought headaches for farmers, the upcoming Song and Dance Festival, and much more!
