This week, the Heritage Foundation launched a new podcast called "Mass Ave". With a building jam-packed with Washington's best policy analysts just steps from Capitol Hill, Heritage is in a unique position to bring timely analysis to the most pressing debates in Washington. 

In its first episode, Adam Michel, a policy analyst in the Thomas A. Roe Institute for Economic Policy Studies, discusses how tax reform, if done right, can give life to the economy. Also, The Daily Signal's Jarrett Stepman lays out how Trump can "drain the swamp" by firing federal workers.
