Episode 32 - Last Stop Before Midterm Town

It's the last episode before we lock in and really focus on the midterms, so we decided to play catch up with a bunch of stories we had yet to cover. First, we're gonna have our discussion about the latest offering from the MCU, Brand New Day. A weird, soulless film that may have been written by an AI in an attempt to manufacture consent for mass surveillance. Next, we go over a bizarre ruling from a federal judge that will clear the way for AI to craft sexually explicit images or videos of minors. Who wants this? And how exactly does an AI produce something like this? Then, a couple of basketball stories, starting with all the trouble the LA Clippers are in as they attempted to fraud their way to more money for Kawhi Leonard. And the newest right wing grifter, NBA wash out Enes Kanter, attempts to cling to relevancy by making a scene at WNBA games. After that, we're going to talk a bit about one of ICE's latest victims, Pierre Damas Bel, a 20 year old college kid in Ohio who was dehumanized by the Republican's Gestapo and took his own life. Finally, we discuss a recent report from the UN which says we have failed to stop temperatures from reaching critical levels as outlined in the Paris Climate Accords, what it means for the future, and seeing the results of climate change in action as flooding devastates Nepal.
