West Coast Cookbook and Speakeasy - Metro Shrimp and Grits Thursdays 01 Feb 24

Today’s West Coast Cookbook & Speakeasy Podcast for our especially special Daily Special, Metro Shrimp & Grits Thursdays, is now available on the Spreaker Player!​​​​​​​Starting off in the Bistro Cafe, Trump insisted to reporters he won the NY fraud and E Jean Carroll cases, and there were no penalties.Then, on the rest of the menu, the newest member of the Oregon House of Representatives is a frothing MAGA who claimed supporting drag queens and LGBTQ+ was akin to supporting child abuse and pedophilia; twenty-five California counties have sued electric car manufacturer Tesla for mishandling hazardous waste at more than one hundred facilities throughout the state; and, a small venture capital firm faced tough questions about DEI from a tribunal of conservative federal judges in Florida, as it defended a grant program for Black women-owned businesses.After the break, we move to the Chef’s Table where Germany’s domestic intelligence agency has put its own “Mike Flynn,” who was removed as the agency’s head several years ago, under scrutiny for his neo-Nazi advocacy; and, Hungary defended its treatment of an Italian antifascist activist, after images of her chained and shackled at a Budapest court hearing, sparked official protests by the far-right Italian government.All that and more, on West Coast Cookbook & Speakeasy with Chef de Cuisine Justice Putnam.Bon Appétit!The Netroots Radio Live Player​Keep Your Resistance Radio Beaming 24/7/365!“Everyone in this good city enjoys the full right to pursue his own inclinations in all reasonable and, unreasonable ways.”-- The Daily Picayune,New Orleans, March 5, 1851Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/west-coast-cookbook-speakeasy--2802999/support.
