This week we podcast podcast Al Franken, comedian, liberal radio talk-show host, and author of the hilarious and insightful book Lies: And the Lying Liars Who Tell Them. In this podcast, Franken will discuss and read from his follow-up book The Truth (with Jokes). Armed with an arsenal of facts and research (and of course comedy!), Franken takes the fight to the Bush administration and their right-wing cronies. Intelligent, insightful, inspiring and laugh-out-loud funny, Franken’s book is a hard-hitting work of political satire.
