Looking for your next banger podcast? Here you go.
Our new podcast begins on the docks of a Massachusetts city. It involves a rogue cop. A demand for drugs. A phrase he'd used again and again: “confidential informant.”

Jack Burkman says he’s Mark Robinson’s new campaign manager. I’m seeking confirmation.
A felon due to his past political work, Burkman plead guilty to a multistate fraud scheme using robocalls to spread “misinformation about mail-in voting leading up to the 2020 election” #ncpol
