Today’s West Coast Cookbook & Speakeasy Podcast for our especially special Daily Special, River City Hash Mondays is now available on the Spreaker Player!
Starting off in the Bistro Cafe, Marc Elias discussed the GOP's dangerous attorney swap and what it will mean.
Then, on the rest of the menu, a federal judge sentenced a longtime DEA agent to four years in prison for leaking Agency intelligence to defense lawyers in a $100,000 bribery scheme; multiple civil cases, and a federal investigation are testing the Tesla claim that drivers are solely responsible for crashes; and, six California House races could help determine control of Congress.
After the break, we move to the Chef’s Table where nine people charged in connection with a far-right plot to topple the German government are going on trial today; and, tens of thousands rallied in Madrid to urge Spanish leader Pedro Sánchez not to resign after a right-wing smear campaign targeting his wife.
Bon Appétit!

Question: Who is your audience? What are you here for?
Answer: Tribal Alliances, Heart-felt Convictions, Passionate Reason, Random Abandon, Sustainable Civility and a kiss; to comfort the sad and the mad Ones; the Ones roaming the International section of the American Supermarket at night; or roaming the neglected streets looking for an angry malaprop to sink their teeth into; the Ones who seek without seeking and learn as much as they teach; the Ones who embrace and kiss and embrace again; the Ones who sing the song of the city and the ballads of the forest; the Ones who chant the rhythm of the sea and hum the melody of the desert; the Ones who sing the prayer of Her name and Her name is the World. Yes, those are the Ones. -- JP
