May the cinco plates be with you
Rep. Jim McGovern gives us the low down on capital hill, the women of Hot Plate Brewing and Latinas 413 talk about their collective Cinco de Mayo event, and Monte celebrates May the 4th by grilling the NEPM staff with questions about wars in the stars.

It is wars in the stars day!
Which means it's the day before Cinco de Mayo, often celebrated in ways that are... shall we say questionable. But Latinas 413 and Hot Plate Brewing are seeking to change all that, while still having fun in the process. They're hosting a Cinco de Mayo event at the brewery that day and we checked in with Sarah Real of Hot Plate, and Lilliana Atanacio, Perla Mendoza, and Laura Cabrera of Latinas 413 to hear more about the actual history of the holiday as well as what those festivities are going to entail.
We mcgovern with Rep. Jim McGovern about the country's Cuba policies and his trepidation surrounding the news of the possible Umass Amherst Layoffs.
But we also asked our Congressperson what his favorite Star Wars® character is, because it's May the fourth, and we are nerds at our core. We want to find out who else in the NEPM building is feeling the force, so we ask our colleagues about the saga that continues.
