And we're live. Welcome back to the Loopcast. Warm welcome to all our live viewers today and those listening in podcast format. We have an excellent show prepared for you today. And Erica, what will we be discussing?

Well, we're going to hit, first of all, we are going to hit on Kansas and what's going on there at the state capital this morning as we speak. And then we're going to bring you an update on deportations. We've got the good,

the bad, and the ugly with the Trump administration's efforts there. Then we get NPR gets its day

on the hill. And man, it was a wild testimony. It was popcorn all the way. I have some stuff

to say about the anniversary of Jonathan Hates, Anxious Generation and Parents, Kids, and

cell phones. And then finally, we have a Pogo interview. He doesn't love a good Pogo interview

to end the week with. We've got Will Chamberlain from Article 3 talking about Trump's fights

with activist judges. So it's going to be a great show. It's going to be a great show for

sure. Yeah, it was great talking to a lawyer.

I was just like, why is everything Trump doing getting blocked?

I need someone to explain this to me like, I'm fine.

And they did.

So that's great.

Josh, how are you feeling today?

I mean, I feel like it's a good day, but, you know, I'm not a big fan of what's going on in Kansas.

Yeah.

Do you want to...

You got the mug.

Yeah, let's drop a little color on that.

So the black mask going on currently, supposedly.

I'm drinking coffee from my Hill Mary full of grace, punch the devil in the face mug.

Perfect.
