Remember when Netflix imploded over Dave Chappelle's comedy skits? Or when Hillary Clinton approved the peddling of a false report that led to the Trump-Russia collusion conspiracy theory? What about that National School Board Association's letter asking the Justice Department to sic federal investigators on parents at school board meetings? In today's episode, Mary Katharine and Vic give an update of some of this year's top stories.

The Department of Homeland Security paused its misinformation board after videos surface of Nina Jankowicz, the woman they tapped to lead the group, discussing topics she believed were misinformation—like the Hunter Biden laptop story. Netflix tells woke employees to kick rocks if they can't work on content with which they disagree, the New York Times gives us a great "So It Can Be Told" segment, and Mary Katharine gives a shoutout to a heroic dog.

While baby formula supplies grow scarce, and the White House isn't quite sure what to do about it, Mary Katharine and Vic are still looking at the bottle half full (for now). White House press secretary Jen Psaki encourages protests targeting Supreme Court Justices, Whoopi Goldberg says Trump should be back on Twitter, and rising tides on the shores of Lake Mead may reveal the Las Vegas mob's secrets.

From the Department of Homeland Security’s new disinformation board to maskless White House Correspondents’ Dinner guests catching Covid—after years of berating others for failing to wear masks—to the New York Times taking a baseless swing at Elon Musk, Mary Katharine and Vic are blasting bad actors today.

We've been living in "unprecedented times" for the past two years. And Politico's latest scoop on the Supreme Court's Dobbs v. Jackson decision is no exception. Mary Katharine and Vic unpack the story, and what the decision means for trust in the nation's highest court, abortion laws, and the midterm. President Joe Biden laughs at his failing economy during the White House Correspondents' Dinner, an update on midterm polling, and a steakhouse chef earns the honor of a lifetime.

Politico’s scoop on the Supreme Court’s forthcoming decision on Dobbs v. Jackson
To nobody’s surprise what so ever, Dr. Anthony Fauci flip-flops on where we are in the pandemic... again. We’re staying up to date on Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover, and more importantly, the outcries from those who fear they’ll lose their ability to dictate what Twitter users can read and share. Finally, Mary Katharine and Vic reveal the “spirit” of 2022 (psst... we're talking alcohol).
