USA’s Boiling Points w. Megan Gailey

Erin and Alyssa break down airport chaos, from TSA turmoil to ICE’s ominous presence, Ms. Rachel’s fight to free children from detention centers, MAGA’s AI dream girl, and why Meta’s glasses are more dystopian than you think. Then comedian Megan Gailey joins to discuss the polyamory discourse sparked by writer Lindy West. They wrap up in the Sanity Corner with a chat about the WNBA’s new contract, Taylor Sheridan’s oddly addictive new show, and more.
