Brad records a solo episode of Life in the Booth to introduce himself beyond politics, sharing personal stories about his family, his relationship with his brother, and his close friendships.

He mixes everyday moments (pickling at 3 a.m., mowing the lawn), his work as a hairdresser, and his life with his partner and Dalmatian with a message about kindness, loyalty, and supporting foundation friends.

Anyway, we have had some issues lately!!! hope to be back this Friday!!!!

Brad and Tim discuss recent news and personal reflections, covering the Canadian wildfire smoke affecting their area, reactions to a presidential speech, political accountability, Lindsey Graham's passing and succession, Mitch McConnell's health questions, a Taco Bell lettuce-related illness outbreak, and frustrations with career politicians and rising costs. They close with heartfelt support for listeners affected by cancer and a light, conversational sign-off.
