Special Episode: The Recall

From Arnold: This is a reminder to celebrate. Because 20 years ago, I was sworn in for the first time. I held my hand in the air and took the oath in front of the cameras, but I didn’t do anything alone. Our great environmental laws, our political reforms to take power from the politicians and give it back to the people, our historic infrastructure investment — I could go on and on. 

Those successes were not mine alone. They were a team effort. My time as Governor was a success AND a joy because of them. So tomorrow, I am not just celebrating my 20th anniversary of becoming Governor; I am celebrating them. We’ll have drinks and mariachi, remember the good old days, and connect. We changed the state for the better and had a good time doing it. That’s worth celebrating.

One of the reporters who covered me, Joe Mathews, wrote a history of the Recall election. The great voice actor Edoardo Ballerini narrated it. It’s basically a 2-hour audiobook. It won’t be for all of you, but I knew some of you might like it. So, I’m sharing it here as a bonus episode.
