2021 Vision

The Gang of Four is now the Gang of Five as Beth Shannon formally and officially becomes one of the co-hosts. She joins John, Jim, Peggy, and Shelly in looking back at 2020 and looking forward to 2021 with the assistance of several of the podcast’s favorite guests and listeners.

After initiating Beth with a short quiz to see how well she understands the minds of her colleagues, the co-hosts look back at their predictions for 2020. (Who said Bernie Sanders would be the Democratic nominee for President?) They fearlessly promulgate new predictions for 2021. (Who believes the new Ambassador to the U.N. will be Time’s Person Of The Year in 2021?)  During the episode they are joined intermittently by Tom McGrath, Bill Granzo, Janine Grohar, Richard Tobin, Alex Berger, Joanna Zeiger, Nicole Wanzer-Serrano, Richard Young, Eloise Maxwell, and Nikki Brake-Sillà.
