ORly Radio Show 66 - Alexa, When will the GOP Eat Itself?  

Welcome to ORly Radio Show 66 for Friday July 10th, 2015 - where we dismantle the current events for your edutainment through mostly rational conversations that make you go ‘Oh Really’! I’m your host Andy Cowen with my usual suspect David!
