Brad Raffensperger isn’t taking any guff from Hollywood star Larry David. The podcast hosts discuss the playful letter Georgia’s secretary of state sent to David after David’s show, “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” poked fun at a state law that prevents the distribution of water and food to people waiting in line to vote within 150 feet of a polling place. 

  

But first, Georgia House Speaker Jon Burns discusses his take on the ups and downs of the just-concluded 2024 legislative session. He talks about his reaction to the failure of a bill to suspend mining operations near the Okefenokee Swamp.  

  

The 75th House speaker also explains why the House didn’t pass Medicaid expansion and the so-called culture war issues sent over from the Senate. 

  

And on the other side of the aisle, state Rep. Jasmine Clark joins the podcast to give a Democratic perspective on the outcome of the session.
