We'd love to hear your thoughts on the podcast. Take the survey at wbur.org/survey. Inflation is a big issue for many voters this year. And in some areas, inflation issues translate to food crises and lead to people visiting food pantries more often. Leslie Albrecht Huber from Way Forward Resources joins us. And, elections law expert Rick Hasen says the country is "in far better shape" to avoid the kind of election interference we saw in 2020. Then, the NFL season kicks off Thursday night as the Kansas City Chiefs face off against the Baltimore Ravens. We preview the season with football journalist Dan Hanzus. Chabeli Carrazana, an economy and childcare reporter with The 19th, also joins us to talk about her investigation into pay transparency for NFL cheerleaders.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
