This week we’re thinking about legacy
President Barack Obama gave his final address to the nation this week. We’ll take a look back at his legacy as the first African-American president of the United States.
An unverified dossier was released this week about President-elect Donald Trump and his relationship with Russia. Trump called the information “a disgrace” and said the events laid out in the dossier “didn’t happen.”
And the Washington State Legislature convened this week. We’ll ask the panel what they hope the legislature will accomplish and why.
Listen to the live discussion Fridays at noon, join in by following @KUOW and using #KUOWwir.
