DC Home, Volume 1

By: Ken La Salle

Narrated by: Ken La Salle

Washington politics might as well exist in a void, if we are going to look at the way it is so often reported on cable tv or Facebook, or those newspapers no one reads. Politicians on Capitol Hill make sweeping decisions about vast sums of money, draconian laws, the fate of armies…and those decisions are just too big for us to experience on a personal level. But not if you ask Sherry Finn. Washington’s inability to end gun violence took her sister in the 2017 Las Vegas mass shooting, which left Sherry to take care of her orphaned nephew, Sean. Washington’s neglect of providing mental health care for so many Americans led Old Herbert to Sherry’s door. Laws are passed or not passed, decisions are put off, lobbyists are satisfied, while people like Sherry are left to feel their impact.

My name is Ken La Salle and I write Sherry’s stories. I have a front-row seat for the lives of Sherry, Sean, Old Herbert, Brett Kavanaugh, Chuck Grassley, Lindsey Graham, and many more. And each week, I sit down and share these stories of their DC Home. Each chapter is 15 episodes long. The first chapter of Sherry’s story is right here. The introductory music was generously provided by Josh Woodward (www.joshwoodward.com).
