The title of this very special interview with Simple Politics founder Tatton Spiller was going to be: 'Peace, Love and Politics', but I just couldn't resist the urge to reference one of my favourite Skunk Anansie chooons! Simple Politics is a hugely successful project run by Tatton and a team of legends, making politics clear and interesting; as if you were having a conversation with a friend. SP does what it says on the tin - keeping it simple'. Tatton is also a Journalist, Author, and now a very ‘relliable narrator', using his own platform to raise Mental Health Awareness through sharing his own experiences with Bipolar and Borderline Personality Disorder. This is an amazing chinwag with an absolute legend, that I guarantee even those of you that don't think politics is for you will gain something from listening to! I am so grateful Tatton for having this crucial conversation at this busy time leading up to the SUPRISE General Election and for all the work that goes into SP!PEACE AND LOVE!

Today is Midday on the Law. Former President Donald Trump testified briefly in a Manhattan Federal courtroom yesterday in the defamation trial with the writer E. Jean Carroll. As for the other four cases in which Trump has been indicted on 91 counts, the Supreme Court may eventually consider the issue of Presidential immunity and ballot eligibility, but a case involving a rioter charged in the Jan. 6 insurrection may also have a big impact on the charges brought against Trump by Special Counsel Jack Smith. Fani Willis, the prosecutor in the Georgia election interference case, has come under scrutiny for potential conflict of interest and Hunter Biden has been indicted for tax evasion, as he continues sparring with the House Oversight Committee about testifying in its investigation. For perspective and analysis on these legal issues, we turn to University of Baltimore Law Professor Kim Wehle. She is the author of three books, including How to Read the Constitution, and Why. Kim is also a legal analyst for ABC News, a contributor to The Atlantic, POLITICO, The Bulwark and The Hill, and the host of Simple Politics on Instagram.Email us at midday@wypr.org, tweet us: @MiddayWYPR, or call us at 410-662-8780.
