#2083 - Unf*cking California + Why Women Are Addicted to Dissapointment | Part 1

About this episode

Adam and Dr. Drew discuss California's financial issues with guest Herb Morgan and touch on various political topics.

Adam and Dr. Drew kick things off with a call from Herb Morgan, who’s running for California State Controller with a mission to restore accountability and expose government waste. Adam asks the obvious question—what exactly does a state controller do?—and Herb breaks it down while also sharing his view that California’s financial system lacks transparency. Drew presses him on how things got to this point, including questions about oversight, NGOs, and the current controller’s performance. Adam also asks for an update on the state’s high-speed rail project. Later, the guys discuss President Trump approving research into psychedelics for neurological disorders and react to a cringeworthy speech from Cory Booker.
