This week we discuss: Politics, Festival Updates, Random Remarkable Facts, Raffi and you all get to ride along as we unsuccessfully attempt to understand negative interest rates.

*In the first section we discussion some colorful language choices. Though we don't normally censor the podcast, the frequency of the language in the first 10 minutes led us to choose to censor the language for our listeners who listen in public or with kids around. For the record, the rest of the episode is not censored (although I don't recall much language) and this does not mean we will censor future episodes. Thanks!
