Ep. 2: Boston City Councilor Kim Janey

Our first episode is FINALLY here! Tune in for Maddie's interview with Massachusetts State Senate Assistant Majority Leader, Sal N. DiDomenico. They discuss everything from the Senator’s recent legislation to issues around housing, transportation, health care, climate change, immigration — and what YOU can do about all of it. For more updates on the Senator and his work on Beacon Hill, you can follow him at @SalDiDomenico on Twitter and like him on Facebook at @SenSalDiDomenico.  Here at Politiquette we highly value transparency and want to be totally honest with you guys about our process. This first episode took us way longer to post than we'd hoped. We tried out various editing software, tackled technical difficulties, and figured out how to make our long-distance pod relationship work an ocean apart (sad). We know the sound quality on this episode gets meh around 33:00 minutes but can assure you that the content is worth the listen and it'll only get better from here! Now that we've gotten this first one under our belts, we're so excited to incorporate what we've learned in order to speed up our process and deliver quality episode right to your front.. app. Additionally, full disclosure: this interview was originally recorded a couple of months ago. Bills, policy, or issues referred to as "most recently" may no longer be accurate. However, all the information contained in this episode remains relevant and worth the listen. Thanks for bearing with us!
