Mark Russell -- the piano-playing political pundit -- performed on C-SPAN many times.
His career as a political satirist spanned half a century.
The latest episode of C-SPAN's podcast "The Weekly" remembers Mark Russell, who died March 30, 2023.
But more than just Mark Russell: We celebrate others who have sung their way into political parody stardom.
Bipartisan political and musical satire is hard to come by these days. Mark Russell's death presents an opportunity to hear from him one more time -- and from others, as well.
So make your way to your microphone ... pull up a piano ... give us a "C" a bouncy "C" … and sing along to the latest episode of C-SPAN's podcast "The Weekly."
It's "The Weekly -- The Musical" ... our first-ever Political Musical Comedy Revue.
As the ole' song instructs: Find C-SPAN's "The Weekly" wherever you get podcasts.
