Welcome back to the Bill Bradley Collective and what is surely one of our most jam-packed episodes. The focus this week is a look at the continued fallout from the January 6, 2021 attack on the United States capitol, two years removed. Your hosts assess the findings of the House Select Committee on the January 6 attacks, the key players that served on the committee, and both Donald Trump’s political and personal future amidst the investigation’s conclusions, conclusions suggestive of criminal conduct by the disgraced ex-President. Before rants, we open the show with a conversation on the sporting world’s dominant news story of the week. In a Monday night contest against the Cincinnati Bengals, Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin suffered cardiac arrest following a seemingly routine tackle. The moment itself, reactions across the league and media, the league’s decision to scrap the game and Hamlin’s inspiring recovery lead us off this week. Then come the rants: where Ed pays a heartfelt tribute to late Connecticut state representative and friend Quentin Williams just a day after his tragic passing; Andrew holds ESPN and Warner Bros. Discovery to the fire for their silence on UFC President Dana White following a recorded physical altercation with his wife; and finally Zak sums up a surreal week in Congress as far-right Republican house members did their best to keep Kevin McCarthy from being elected House speaker and C-SPAN made for must-see-TV.
