Who says politics can't be fun?

Today, independent candidate for governor, Lauren Pinkston, joins us for a one-on-one interview. And a couple of Nashville's political reporters give us the latest on the governor’s race, highlights from our redrawn congressional districts, and a look at what kind of help candidates are getting from out of state.

Plus, an attorney helps us parse the language of constitutional amendments you’ll be voting on. We top this episode off with an IRL ballot party host who shares tips on how to get funding from a nonpartisan group to throw your own ballot party.
