Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
News flash for D.C. government workers: don’t surf for porn on the taxpayer dime. We explore why nine District employees have been fired, and how city workers are spending their time. Plus, we debut our weekly regional coverage with a primary race that’s attracting national attention — the battle between Maryland Congressman Albert Wynn and Democratic challenger Donna Edwards. Join us for our weekly review of the politics, policies, and personalities of D.C., Maryland and Virginia.
