Ep. 91: A Spy Runs for Seattle City Council; New King County Dem Chair Shasti Conrad

This week, we talk first with Naveed Jamali, candidate for Seattle City Council in district 7, which includes downtown, Belltown, Queen Anne, and Magnolia. Previously, Jamali was a commentator for MSNBC, talking about national security issues drawing from his work as a former FBI double agent, an experience he chronicled in his book, “How to Catch a Russian Spy.”

We also talk with the newly elected chair of the King County Democrats, Shashti Conrad, who ran with a slate of progressive candidates under the banner, Vision 2020. Conrad has a transformative view of the role of the Democratic party, particularly as it interfaces and collaborates with grassroots groups like Indivisible.
