(upbeat music) - Welcome to Padse of America, I'm John Faber. - I'm Dan Pfeiffer. - On today's show, prosecutors inch closer to potential indictments of Donald Trump, Nikki Haley officially becomes the first candidate to challenge him for the Republican nomination. Democrats quietly and not so quietly worry about Joe Biden's age. Michigan State Senator Mallory McMorro joins to talk about passing gun safety legislation after this week's shooting at Michigan State University. And Crooked Zone, Halle Kiefer, takes us on a meandering journey through Elon Musk's adult mind. We're covering a lot today, but for some big news, we are excited to share that the first book from our very own Crooked Media Reads is available for pre-order today. The novel is called Mobility by Lydia Kiesling, who also wrote the incredible book, The Golden State. We've been fans of Lydia's work for a long time. I think Friends of the Pod are gonna love this book. Mobility is gripping and hilarious. It's one of those novels you'll nag all your friends to read. It's part coming of age story and part indictment of capitalism in the oil industry. It moves between Houston, Athens, and Azerbaijan, and attracts themes of class power, politics, and desire, all through the life of a very compelling character, Bunny Glenn. The book has already earned outstanding early praise, Pulitzer Prize winner Geraldine Brooks called it, quote, "a masterpiece of misdirection and a cautionary tale for our times." Pre-order mobility at crooked.com/mobility, or wherever books are sold. So you can be the first to read it when it's released on August 1st. Can I nag you about this for a second? Please do. So I read The Golden State when it came out a couple years ago. I loved it. Of course, you read everything. Yeah. That's the point I'm trying to uncutally make here. And loved it. It's a great book. I was super excited to find out that Crooked was publishing her follow-up.
