Episode 64 - Pull Your Boots Up By Your Pant Straps

<p>Everyone had shit to do, so here is your late Epoch. For the first half, we mostly talk about the Texas abortion ban and new voting restrictions, as well as follow up on Afghanistan, and Obama's legacy in the Middle East. We discuss the disastrous end to federal unemployment insurance, and try to bring some levity with some more positive news. The second half mostly consists of a lengthy conversation about the Boston mayoral race. As always, thanks for listening, and please share with your comrades.
