S2E21 2020 Put a Different Wig On... Jan 11, 2021

Show notes

Well that was an interesting month of hiatus. We return to talk about firing people who participated in a coup attempt. Also, some rules that will be undone shortly, including the executive order on training limitations going bye bye. But mostly we're just shell shocked by the events of the last week. Also, Marc has a new job.
