Happy weekend y’all—Laura here, back with the latest Kevin and David week-in-review podcast. This week: Kevin and David bat around Obama’s speech timing, Joe Wilson, and the weirdest thing about Twitter. Plus: David doesn’t really like to talk about the truthers, which makes his latest take on Van Jones and 9/11 conspiracies all the more interesting. And is that a dog I hear in the background chez Kevin? Give a listen: Kevin and David’s 9/11 Week-in-Review podcast.

Laura McClure hosts weekly podcasts and is a writer and editor for Mother Jones. Read her recent investigative feature on lifehacking gurus here.

HERE’S WHERE YOU COME IN

We’ll say it loud and clear: No one gets to tell Mother Jones what to publish or not publish, because no one owns our fiercely independent newsroom. But that also means we need to directly raise the resources it takes to keep our journalism alive. There’s only one way for that to happen, and it’s readers like you stepping up. Please help with a donation today if you can—even a few bucks will make a real difference. A monthly gift would be incredible.
