Bill Radke reviews the week's news with former Washington State Attorney General Rob McKenna, Civic Cocktail host Joni Balter and Live Wire host Luke Burbank.

After the Issaquah School District forced its staff to prove they were immunized against the measles before returning to work, Bill asks his guests: Who else should make you prove you're not a danger of spreading the disease? Planes? Libraries? Gymborees?

Jay Inslee is a presidential candidate, environmental warrior, and reckless scooter rider. All of that still adds up to 1% in the polls.
