Summary

Don and Chuck get political, y'all! In Netflix's new film, The Trial of the Chicago 7, Aaron Sorkin weaves a well-plotted, true-life story to show how the cards stacked against well-intentioned protesters made doing the right thing nearly impossible. Don and Chuck use this as a springboard to talk about the war against ideas, the ideals of America as an institution, and how the struggles faced by those who would do the right thing haven't changed in the over fifty years since. Also, hear some thoughts on audiobooks. It's a real rollercoaster! Music by Nathan Terry nterrymusic.com
