You Can Call Him Al

​The guests on this week’s Al Franken podcast are Laura Bassett from The Cut and Sarah Zhang of The Atlantic. As Al writes, “This election could all come down to abortion. Both Laura and Sarah have been writing about the issue of abortion and how it’s playing into this election. Sarah’s recent piece in The Atlantic examined how Idaho’s draconian abortion laws have set the state’s healthcare back for women. Laura has been writing about the issue for years and says that it poses a serious threat to Ted Cruz’s reelection campaign in Texas.”  Together, they discuss the impact of abortion on the 2024 election.
