It's Tuesday, January 16th, 2023. And there was really only one story yesterday that's worth

0:06.1

talking about the Iowa caucuses next on the AM update.

0:19.3

Today's episode will be just a little bit shorter because there's only really one story worth

0:23.8

talking about, as I noted.

0:25.6

The big winner of yesterday's Iowa caucuses are Democrats prospects in 2024.

0:33.1

Setting aside, of course, the fact that all of the major networks and news outlets called the race
