Part One: We speak with Elena Holodny on her piece at Business Insider, “What if Felons Could Vote?” We learn what states disenfranchise the most voters, and what states allow felons to vote absentee.

Part Two: Jesse Eisenger is a senior reporter at ProPublica. We speak with Jesse about his new book, “The Chickenshit Club: Why the Justice Department Fails to Prosecute Executives.”

In 2011, Jesse and a colleague won the Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting for a series they did on questionable Wall St. practices that made the 2008 financial crisis the worst since the Great Depression.
