Please take a second to like, subscribe, rate, and review us on iTunes. Rudy Giuliani’s marriage may be over, but we’re just getting started. We’ve got quick hits on Scott Pruitt, Sinclair media, and all the Twitter drama, from Kurt Eichenwald to Kevin D. Williamson. In terrible takes, we have Tucker Carlson afraid of the fairer sex, Preet Bharara loving on Jeff Bezos, and Ezra Klein flattering our soulless information overlord, Mark Zuckerberg. For a marathon pop culture corner, we’re talking about Nnedi Okorafor’s Binti trilogy, John Hodgman’s Vacationland, Warren Beatty’s Reds, HBO’s Silicon Valley, and the ignominious rebirth of the most foul-mouthed friend of Israel, Roseanne Barr. For story time this week, Sam will tell you about getting into a fight with someone aggressively asserting their right to recline on a transatlantic flight.
