Mondays 147: Nobody Said There Would be Math

This week on the podcast we’re Han Solo but we’ve got some great news and information for you including items on Beverly Hills residents being denied permits for underground pools, we’ve got money for transit operations in a house bill, and we’re noticing the Introvert Economy is in full swing.  Come join us, we were told there would be no math in podcasting, but it turns out that’s just not true.
