Drone Plot, Nuclear War Bets, and the Brady Bunch House

from The Snark Factor · host Fingers Malloy

This week on The Snark Factor, Fingers Malloy and Sarah Smith look back at the challenge of doing a pre-recorded show when the news cycle refuses to cooperate — like last week, when the U.S. went to war with Iran after the show had already been recorded. In this episode: • The fallout and meme war surrounding the U.S. strikes on Iran • A reshuffling at Homeland Security and the politics around it • Polymarket pulling a betting market on whether a nuclear weapon would be detonated this year • A disturbing case involving a Wisconsin teenager accused of plotting to assassinate President Trump with a drone • A grocery store parking lot scam that can drain your bank account in seconds • Los Angeles giving the Brady Bunch house historic landmark status • Britney Spears headlines and the strange world of celebrity news Politics, internet culture, scams, and a few unexpected detours — just another Sunday morning on The Snark Factor.
