Today, Dom led off the Dom Giordano Program by discussing the push to return to in-person schooling in the face of the Omicron variant, telling of the efforts by teachers unions to force children into remote schooling again. Then, Giordano and producer Dan debate the situation that unfolded last night during the Sunday Night Football game, in which controversy arose in the last two minutes of overtime when the Raiders decided to seal their fate with a win instead of a tie against the Chargers. Had both teams tied, both would have made the playoffs, but the Raiders decided to kick a game winning field goal after a Chargers timeout. Then, after bumping back from break, Dom and Dan spend time remembering the great career of Bob Saget, then switch back into a conversation surrounding coronavirus policies, particularly in schools.

Then, Angie Schmitt, author of Right of Way: Race, Class, and the Silent Epidemic of Pedestrian Deaths in America, joins the Dom Giordano Program to discuss a piece she penned for the Atlantic, telling why Coronavirus policies have caused her to sour on Democrats. First, Schmitt takes Giordano through her past year, raising and schooling two children while being the primary source of income. Schmitt tells that during her 6 months off from work, her entire family got Coronavirus, and she recognized that there may be ulterior motives at play here. In addition, Schmitt tells that she feels both parties, Democrat and Republican, have spent too much time fighting one another rather than finding a solution out of the pandemic.
