Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Senator Ben Cardin
Mayor Muriel Bowser reverses course and signs a law creating a system to publicly finance campaigns in the District. Maryland makes moves to change its state song, a remnant of its Confederate-leaning past. And some Virginians are worried that a new Metro funding deal could put other transportation projects at risk. Plus, Maryland Senator Ben Cardin joins us to talk about the youth movement against gun violence, Russian sanctions. And D.C. Councilmember Mary Cheh shares her thoughts on relief for high water bills and news that D.C. Public Schools is taking over an all girls charter school.
Sorting political fact from fiction, and having fun while we’re at it. Join us for our weekly review of the politics, policies, and personalities of the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia.
