I'm Maria Kannakova and I'm Nate Silver and our new podcast Risky Business is a show about making better decisions.

We're both journalists who moonlight as poker players and that's the lens we're going to use to approach this entire show.

We're going to be discussing everything from high-stakes poker to personal questions.

Like whether I should call a plumber or fix my shower myself.

And of course we'll be talking about the election too.

Listen on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. Hey guys and welcome to Normally, the show with Normalish Takes for when the news gets weird.

Thank you for being with us all of our normies. I am Mary Catherine.

And I'm Carol Markowitz.

Hey Mary Catherine, how are you and have you had any McDonald's recently?

Oh my gosh, that's a, you know, that's an evergreen yes for me really I thought you're

a bojangles girl oh I strongly associate you with the bojangles brand as you should

but the the beauty of me is that I can be associated with several

fast food brands among them McDonald's bowjangles and waffle house and I have much love for all of them.

Another thing I've always had love for is

Trump's unabashed affection for fast food.

Yeah, he's not at all embarrassed. He's like, bring on the McDonald's

burgers when he's in the in the White House. You know, stack him up real high on nice

silver trays. Oh my gosh, I did enjoy that so much it was a what was it a national championship

ceremony where a team was being welcomed to the White House. It just puts out

fast food boxes everywhere you can see there's a guy know what they like they're

arranged beautifully I thought that was a wonderful moment so this was on display

this week.
