Today on the show:

  • Sen. Bernie Sanders has announced he's running for president again. We opened the lines to ask our listeners: Are you in? If you voted for Sanders in 2016, are you going to give him another try? Now that there are other candidates who also bring a progressive voice to the race, has his outsider’s edge worn off?
  • Anchor and reporter for NBC Sports Boston Trenni Kusnierek joined us from Florida, where she’s covering the Boston Red Sox spring training.
  • Ali Noorani recently traveled to Honduras and Mexico to see what the border crisis looks like on the other side. He joined us to talk about that, President Donald Trump declaring a national emergency to fund the border wall, and other immigration headlines. He is the executive director of the National Immigration Forum and his latest book is "There Goes the Neighborhood: How Communities Overcome Prejudice and Meet the Challenge of American Immigration."
  • Corby Kummer, a senior editor at The Atlantic, an award winning food writer and a senior lecturer at the Tufts Friedman School of Nutrition and Policy, joined us to discuss pay-what-you-can cafes. Are they a noble business venture or failed from the start?
  • Michael Zeldin, a resident fellow in the Institute of Politics at the Harvard Kennedy School and a CNN legal analyst, is also a former colleague of Robert Mueller, who is leading the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election. He joined the show to discuss what William Barr might mean for the investigation and more.
  • John King, CNN’s Chief National correspondent and host of Inside Politics, gave his take on the national emergency declaration and other political headlines.
  • It’s the 10th anniversary of The Boston Globe Magazine’s "Dinner With Cupid" column. We opened the lines to ask our listeners: Do you read it religiously? Is it frustrating or an essential weekend read?
