Episode description
We’re back with one long episode in two cracking segments. First up, Welch and Moynihan (Ed. note: Kmele is currently peering through a telescope on the South Side of Chicago or something) catch up on all the stupid news of the last week, including…
* The news of certain…errrr……media layoffs
* Defenestrations at Fox News and CNN
* The “they-ificaton” of Tucker Carlson
* The bizarro world of Robert F. Kennedy Jr
* Lil’ Bobby: Prosecute people I disagree with
And then it’s an hour with return guest Ben Smith (his third appearance, we think?), editor-in-chief of Semafor, former editor-in-chief of Buzzfeed News, and author of the new book Traffic: Genius, Rivalry, and Delusion in the Billion-Dollar Race to Go Viral. No explanation needed. It’s good. You’ll like it.
