I'm John Quinhill, host of the weeds, a podcast all about the policies that shape our lives.

Medicaid churn, abortion rights, the inflation reduction act, marijuana, the Supreme Court,

housing discrimination, social security.

I know, it's a lot to take in.

So we dive deep.

I am going to back out a little bit because there's no way to do this simply.

This is really getting into the weeds.

This is a huge rabbit hole actually.

To get wonky, criminal justice data is noisy.

Research on firearms violence is really controversial.

That might sound like a really technical definition, but it's a super deep and fundamental statement

of what our markets are about.

And we have fun along the way.

In the bankruptcy filing, listen, I was I was reading through that thing.

It's a spicy meatball of a filing.

It's a banger, right?

It opens with like, I know Enron.

And this is no Enron.

It's worse.

Keep up with the weeds to state informed and empowered.

New episodes drop every Wednesday.

Yeah, let's do it.
