Virtual Birthday

This episode covers ICE activity in Minneapolis and the shooting of Renée Good, the local fallout including resignations, and broader reactions. We also discuss reports that Venezuelan oil funds moved to Qatar and the Pentagon’s plan to integrate an AI chatbot into classified systems. Plus: bizarre crime stories (a woman arrested with a bag labeled "definitely not a bag full of drugs," and a physician assistant who tried to bribe police and was later found with cocaine), an "Am I the Asshole?" about cussing at a Costco line-cutter, listener comments, and the hosts' usual banter.
