Choices

We go long on this show (and we're not just talking about one of our hosts, either). First up, the mayor of New York City wants to be your President. That's good for the city (keeps him away for long stretches of time), and probably good for the current occupant of the White House too. Then, our good pal and co-podcaster Andrew Klavan joins to discuss his recent adventure at Stanford University and then sticks around for a detailed discussion about the pro-life bill that just passed in Alabama. Then, we remember architect I.M. Pei, and when James heads to airport, Peter and Rob talk more about the pro-life issue and its place in American life.

Um, copy editor??? To be pedantic: "were" and "it's" are both words, but not in their (not they're!) context here. Don't even get me started on the comma usage.
Okay, got that out. Now I can listen to the podcast.

Fixed. The auto-correct on my desktop is way too bossy.

To be fair, so am I. Thanks, Yeti, old friend. Good podcast!

Re: the discussion about Roe v. Wade between (mostly) Peter and Andrew: First, which was only touched on a little, overturning Roe (or actually, Casey now) would not automatically make abortion illegal. It would go back to the states. Secondly, and perhaps more importantly, believing religious people - perhaps especially Catholics - should not have believed that abortion was OK - especially with God - just because the Supreme Court said 46 years ago that it was LEGAL.
