This week we are joined by our one listener/special guest, Spartacus and discuss his book recommendation: Unsung Heroes: Federal Execucrats Making a Difference by Norma. M. Riccucci.  We also explore the uncharted realm of bureaucrat porn; do poli-sci reps in the squat rack; look for Reagan era officials in Pound Town; watch a brawl between a humble philosopher and a big, swinging Richard; and desperately try to forgive our mothers for the irreversible damage created by their '80s hair choices.
