Episode description as stored
Kara and Scott discuss ABC pushing back against the FCC and how the escalating redistricting wars could reshape the midterms. Then, Apple’s AirPods with built-in cameras move closer to reality. Plus, the Trump Phone remains MIA, and the Pentagon releases a new batch of UFO files. Have a suggestion for Kara’s Scott-free August guest co-hosts?
