Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey welcomes back contributing correspondent Dr. Katherine V. Callahan to break down the escalating chaos within Madison County government. From there, they turn to the political drama surrounding Indiana Secretary of State Diego Morales. Indiana Republicans scramble to distance themselves from Morales ahead of the convention — without holding him accountable — and, oh yeah, relatively unknown Max Engling has entered the IN SOS race as well. With local dysfunction reaching new levels and a very interesting Indiana GOP Convention on the horizon, things are heating up. Bilbrey and Callahan ask the question nobody in power wants answered: What happens when citizens tolerate corrupt chaos for too long? This episode pulls no punches. #ThePoliticalSpotlight
