Episode description
Today, we’re doing something a little different. Instead of a normal interview, we wanted to let you in on a special round table discussion I recently had with my fellow Opinion Audio hosts: Jane Coaston of “The Argument” and Kara Swisher of “Sway.” We discuss California’s recall election, the future of the Republican Party, the recent “Facebook Files” revelations, the case for and against breaking up Big Tech, why so many Americans distrust the media and much more.
So enjoy! And remember to subscribe to “Sway” and “The Argument” wherever you get your podcasts.
Mentioned:
“Gavin Newsom Is Much More Than the Lesser of Two Evils” by Ezra Klein
“How California conservatives became the intellectual engine of Trumpism” by Jane Coaston
