We're trying out a new feature here – a second chance for you to listen to the Monday edition of GPB's "Political Rewind." Just in case you missed the smartest hour of political talk in Georgia.

Today's line-up: Host Bill Nigut; yours truly, the AJC political columnist; former congressman Buddy Darden; former WSB political reporter Lori Geary; and Todd Rehm, editor of GaPundit.com:

Topics include the first day of the Legislative session and a Journal-Constitution poll of issues state lawmakers are likely to face, thoughts on the coming crush of U.S. Senate hearings on Donald Trump's cabinet appointees, plus the flap over actress Meryl Streep's remarks about the president-elect.

“Political Rewind” airs at 2 p.m. Monday and Wednesday, and at 3 p.m. Friday, on GPB Radio – locally at WRAS (88.5 FM).
