Despite the Joke and the Diet Coke - When You Suffer a Stroke You Cannot Stay Woke

John talks about Trump’s repeated declarations of imminent deals with Iran, questioning the credibility of his statements as he seems increasingly detached from reality. He highlights Trumps bizarre behavior during public appearances, including falling asleep on stage and his weird drugged demeanor. John also discusses Trumps new nominee for Director of National Intelligence, Jay Clayton. And if you're wondering what intelligence experience Clayton has that qualifies him to oversee your country's entire intelligence apparatus, the answer is... he went on CNBC this week and hinted that California elections might be rigged. Next, Ann Larson, author of "Clean Up on Aisle Five," joins the conversation, shedding light on the struggles of grocery workers during the pandemic and the systemic issues of poverty and exploitation in the food industry. Together, they explore the implications of corporate greed and the urgent need for a living wage for essential workers. Then, Simon Moya Smith and Julie Francella, return for another edition of "We're Still Here". One of the standout moments in the episode is the discussion around the upcoming House of Smoke and Ash event, organized by the James Beard Foundation. This indigenous culinary event showcases the rich foodways and traditions of native chefs, emphasizing the importance of food sovereignty and the need for greater recognition of indigenous contributions to our culinary landscape.
