Then, legal analyst Professor Corey Brettschneider joins the crew and they chat about Trump's cabinet picks and his new book "The Presidents and the People: Five Leaders Who Threatened Democracy and the Citizens Who Fought to Defend It". Next, John interviews singer, songwriter, musician, poet, activist, documentarian, and rapper - Michael Franti and he explains his work with WhyHunger. Now in its 39th year, WhyHunger’s Hungerthon brings together thousands of supporters across the U.S. with their partners at SiriusXM and artists like Bruce Springsteen and Yoko Ono Lennon who believe in their shared vision of a hunger-free future for all! Take action at SiriusXM.com/Hungerthon. Then winding it up, John speaks with author, podcaster, and Democratic strategist Cliff Schecter on the political scene and Trump's wacky cabinet picks.
