The Daily Signal - LA School Board Has No Excuse. Kids Should Be Back in Classroom, Father Says

The Los Angeles school board keeps moving the goal post for when students will be allowed to return to the classroom for in-person learning, says the founder of L.A. School Uprising.


Ross Novie, the father of two school-age children, founded the coalition of parents and students calling for Los Angeles schools to reopen for optional, in-person instruction. He launched the grassroots movement after watching his own kids struggle with remote learning.


Novie joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain why he has lost confidence in the Los Angeles Unified School District's Board of Education and other local and state leaders to put the needs of children above politics. 


Also on today’s show, we read your letters to the editor and share a good news story about a couple who opened up their home to a stranded delivery driver during the winter storm in Texas.


Enjoy the show!

Back Bar - Whenever You Need Somebody

Internet memes may have invaded our brains but they brought back the Aviation too.

It was the early 2000s and cocktail bars were taking off along with a crazy little idea called the internet. People from all over the world were making funny gifs, pictures and sayings while in the east village Sasha Petraske opened a tiny little bar with no sign called Milk & Honey. As one grew it fed off the other one to spread ideas, methods, fads, crazes and all sorts of notions until the cocktail bar as we know it today took shape. Special guests this week are Tom Richter of Tomr’s Tonic, Greg Boehm of Cocktail Kingdom and Eileen Fisher of Hotaling & Co.

Please SUBSCRIBE and RATE the show if you can. Join us every two weeks as we talk about history's favorite drinks and how what we drink shapes history. To see what's coming next follow Greg on instagram @100ProofGreg. #drinkinghistory
