The Fabulous 413

Well, we are finally here. The day the nation has been gearing up for since basically January 1st. (may the votes be ever in your favor, and may you convince someone out there who hasn’t made a plan to vote to figure it out.)

We here at the Fabulous 413, have decided that we are gonna be an island of respite in this sea of overwhelming anxiety and information, because we all deserve a break.

But that doesn’t mean we won’t share information at all! In fact, we’ve got another power of history lined up for you to learn about the first black woman to run for President: Shirley Chisholm. Professor Ousmane Power Greene of Clark University breaks down the key facets of her campaign and political career, and even her ties to Western Mass. And then

Then we’ll segue to the Judicial branch where household disputes are presented and presided upon in podcast form. Judge John Hodgman and Bailiff Jesse Thorn are taking their justice on the road and making a stop in Turners Falls This week, so we speak with the two of them about the allure of being right, and adjudicate a few disputes of our own.
