About this episode

This one is a ride. Miranda's joined by Billy Binion and Yemisi Egbewole and they go from missing person media frenzy to 2028 tryouts in Munich to RFK Jr. and Kid Rock in a cold plunge... in jeans, for some reason. They break down why Savannah Guthrie's mom's disappearance is getting wall-to-wall coverage, why the internet detective thing usually makes everything worse, and how certain cases get attention while others get ignored. Then they pivot to Dems basically starting 2028 early, including AOC's viral moments, her fight with the New York Times, and who actually has a shot. Finally, they react to the MAHA ad that feels like a fever dream and ask the obvious question: who is this even for? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
