The Media Literacy Wrecking Crew is back — minus Sydney (she’s out this week), but Nolan Higdon and Dickey are here to break down the headlines the media won’t touch — or totally misrepresents.

In this wild ride of an episode, we unpack:

🕵️ Epstein leaks, cover-ups, and suspicious resignations
💸 OpenAI and Microsoft’s teacher training program — good PR or bad policy?
🧠 Why “neutral” AI is a myth — and what Grok’s Nazi problem tells us
🧪 Truth or Troll? Dickey challenges Nolan with real vs. fake headlines
📢 What media literacy really looks like in an age of bots, billionaires, and bullshit

This isn’t your average news roundup — it’s a critical, funny, and fearless breakdown from the Media Literacy Wrecking Crew.
