Here’s the radio lineup for Friday, Nov. 22.

9 a.m. — National news roundup

What new did we learn from this week's marathon impeachment hearings? Are we any closer to knowing what happens next? If you've been busy this week, it's time to loop you in. Joshua Johnson will break it all down on 1A’s national news roundup.

10 a.m. — International news roundup

Iran cuts internet access after violent protests turn deadly. The U.S. parts company with the international community and international law, and says Israeli settlements are legal. And Prince Andrew struggles to contain a firestorm of his own making over his ties to the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

11 a.m. — MPR News with Angela Davis

First, MPR News political reporter Briana Bierschbach joins host Angela Davis to discuss a new effort that would get state lawmakers to agree on a bill that would provide free insulin to Minnesotans in need.

Then, a Thanksgiving segment: Holiday gatherings are often filled with joyful memories. It can be a time to reconnect with distant relatives and spend quality time with one another. But for many people these family get-togethers are tough and full of tension. Maybe you revert to familiar roles from when you were a kid, or you don't care for a certain relative, or you spend the entire dinner biting your tongue as political views become the topic of conversation. How can we defuse tension at the dinner table? Two experts join the conversation to offer some advice on dealing with family drama.

Rather than being laboratories of democracy, we seem to have red labs and blue labs. Texas and Tennessee and Ohio are Republican-dominated. California, Colorado and Illinois are Democrat-dominated. What does this show about the way state governments are working, or not working?
