January 10, 2019: Hour 1

Shutting down the federal government over budget disputes is a fairly modern phenomenon. We dig into the history of the government shutdown, as the current stalemate stretches into its 20th day. Also, in this week's DJ Session, KCRW DJ Aaron Byrd joins Here & Now's Jeremy Hobson to discuss a new track from D'Angelo featured in the video game "Red Dead Redemption 2," and introduce another from 18-year-old London musician Arlo Parks. That and more, in hour one of Here & Now's Jan. 10, 2019 full broadcast. You can read and hear more at hereandnow.org, follow us on Twitter and join the conversation on Facebook.
