Episode 67: Metastasis (Impeachment, w/ Frank Bowman)

<p>The U.S. House has impeached President Donald Trump, for an unprecedented second time. This time, a majority of members of Congress endorsed a single article of impeachment for &quot;incitement of insurrection,&quot; based on Trump&#39;s urging a crowd of his supporters to march to the Capitol where both houses of Congress were meeting to count electoral votes, urging the crowd to go pressure members of Congress to overturn the results in key states that Trump lost. Once the House officially transmits the article of impeachment to the Senate, they will be able to conduct a trial, which could result in conviction and disqualification of Trump from federal office in the future, ensuring he could not be President ever again.</p> <p>I spoke with an expert on impeachment, Frank O. Bowman, III, the Floyd R. Gibson Missouri Endowed Professor of Law, at the University of Missouri School of Law. He has many areas of expertise, including legal history and the impeachment of the President and other federal officers. We discussed the history of impeachment, his thoughts on the strengths and shortcomings of the single article of impeachment, as well as where blame lies surrounding the riot at the Capitol on January 6.</p> <p><strong>LINKS</strong><br> <a href="https://law.missouri.edu/person/frank-o-bowman-iii/" rel="nofollow">--Frank Bowman University of Missouri web profile</a><br> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07R52WC1B/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1" rel="nofollow">--High Crimes and Misdemeanors: A History of Impeachment for the Age of Trump, by Frank O.

Episode 66: Conviction (Impeachment Politics, w/ Sarah Binder)

<p>In the wake of the violence and destruction resulting from mob action in the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, and given that many view President Donald Trump&#39;s public comments beforehand as inciting the mob&#39;s action, House Democrats have presented a single article of impeachment with a vote likely imminent. If this happens, Trump would be the first U.S. president impeached twice. I recently spoke with Sarah Binder, Professor of Political Science at The George Washington University, and Senior Fellow in Governance Studies at the Brookings Institution, speaking with her about impeachment politics, as well as things to watch as Democrats prepare to regain control of the Senate, albeit by the thinnest of margins.</p> <p><strong>LINKS</strong><br> <a href="https://politicalscience.columbian.gwu.edu/sarah-binder" rel="nofollow">--Binder&#39;s GWU profile</a><br> <a href="https://www.brookings.edu/experts/sarah-a-binder/" rel="nofollow">--Binder&#39;s Brookings profile</a><br> <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/01/04/what-expect-when-congress-counts-electoral-college-votes-wednesday/" rel="nofollow">--&quot;What to expect when Congress counts the electoral college votes on Wednesday,&quot; by Sarah Binder (Washington Post&#39;s Monkey Cage, January 4, 2021)</a><br> <a href="https://www.npr.org/sections/trump-impeachment-effort-live-updates/2021/01/11/955631105/impeachment-resolution-cites-trumps-incitement-of-capitol-insurrection" rel="nofollow">--&quot;Impeachment resolution cites Trump&#39;s &#39;incitement&#39; of Capitol insurrection,&quot; Brian Naylor (NPR, January 11, 2021)</a><br> <a href="https://www.brookings.edu/opinions/impeachment-lessons-where-has-deliberation-gone/" rel="nofollow">--&quot;Impeachment lessons: Where has deliberation gone?&quot; Sarah A.

Episode 65: Gut Check (w/ Tim Spector, on food science)

<p>We all eat, but we don&#39;t all eat well. How can we do so? In particular, what dietary choices are best for an individual&#39;s physical wellness? And how much do individuals&#39; unique characteristics determine what choices are best for them? And what choices are best for the environment? Why are calories and &quot;food miles&quot; overrated as metrics? How can governments help consumers make good food choices, especially if they live in food deserts? I discuss such questions with genetic epidemiologist Tim Spector.</p> <p><strong>LINKS</strong><br> <a href="https://www.kcl.ac.uk/people/professor-tim-spector" rel="nofollow">--Tim Spector&#39;s King&#39;s College web profile</a><br> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WSSYZK2/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1" rel="nofollow">--Spoon-Fed: Why Almost Everything We&#39;ve Been Told About Food is Wrong (2020), by Tim Spector</a><br> <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/books/2020/aug/05/spoon-fed-by-tim-spector-review-food-myths-busted" rel="nofollow">--The Guardian review of Spoon-Fed (by Bee Wilson)</a><br> <a href="http://www.joinzoe.com/" rel="nofollow">--Information on Zoe (program through which individuals learn more about how their bodies process food)</a><br> <a href="https://www.annualreviews.org/doi/full/10.1146/annurev-genom-090711-163814" rel="nofollow">--&quot;The human microbiome: Our second genome,&quot; by Elizabeth Grice &amp; Julia Sege (2012), Annual Review of Genomics and Human Genetics</a><br> <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/products/databriefs/db313.htm" rel="nofollow">--&quot;Attempts to lose weight among adults in the United States, 2013-2016,&quot; report from the CDC: National Center for Health Statistics</a><br> <a href="https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2016/08/12/486898630/chile-battles-obesity-with-stop-signs-on-packaged-foods" rel="nofollow">--&quot;Chile battles obesity with stop signs on packaged foods,&quot; by Eileen Smith (2016) for National Public Radio</a></p><p>Special Guest: Tim Spector.</p>
