Shannon and Michael discuss why so many people are leaving Los Angeles, breaking down the entertainment industry slowdown, the cost of living, and how difficult the city can be if you do not have money, with Michael reflecting on his own experience arriving as a transplant. The hour continues with NewsNation’s Lt. Gen. Richard Newton on protests in Iran and what U.S. support may actually mean, followed by AM570’s Matt “Money” Smith breaking down the college basketball betting scandal.
