it's a family affair this week, as Julia's mom - former radio producer and current visual researcher -  Kathie McKenna joins us to discuss the James L. Brooks classic Broadcast News (1987). We discuss the value of a quick but powerful cry, the himbo vs. incel dynamic, and the ways in which the news media landscape has changed over the last 30 years. Is everything in the world biased? YES! Except for us, delivering the STRAIGHT FACTS through your headphones. thanks for listening!
