Julie talks to local resident and former congressional staffer Mike Glazer about liberty during the Covid-19 crisis: how we can best make our voices heard, which elected officials we should be communicating with, and Mike's take on the anti-shutdown protest in Harrisburg last Monday, April 20, 2020.
