Mega Billions

Cuatro Cuatro. Brandon and Deej have a four pack of goodness this week. Sadly, we didn't win the Mega Millions but we did breakdown the history of lottery culture with Troy Patterson's piece "Watching Lottery Drawings in an Age of Plutocracy" in the New Yorker. We double down with Jelani Cobb's look at the Georgia gubernatorial race. #VoteStacyAbrams. Then, end with two compelling pieces of journalism from the New York Times. Michael Wilson's look into the tragic death of Geoffrey Corbis and a fire audio piece by Ike Sriskandarajah, who revisited the children and educator (Newark Mayor Ras Baraka) that starred in the famous classroom skits from Miseducation of Lauryn Hill after 20 years. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/send-the-link/support
