Mission, Possible: The Otherworldly Optimism of Senator Mark Kelly

He was an astronaut. Then his wife, Rep. Gabby Giffords, survived an act of political gun violence. Now, he's a U.S. Senator tinkering his way around the "stupid sh*t" inside Washington's machine. Can Mark Kelly convince his colleagues to look past corporate money in order to save lives? And could Charlie Kirk's killing lead to progress? Also: twins with mustaches, a first date on death row, an accidental Obama nickname... and the correct pronunciation of acetaminophen. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
