Chapo Trap House - 852 – Do the Dew feat. Hasan Piker (7/23/24)

We’re joined by streamer Hasan Piker for an honestly unprecedented news round-up. Joe Biden is OUT of the Presidential race (and possibly dead??), and Kamala Harris is now the presumptive nominee. Mere days after avoiding getting his head blown off by millimeters, it appears Donald Trump has LOST the mandate of heaven. And Trump’s VP pick, as recently as last week a symbolic football-spike in a race presumed already won, is rapidly deflating when put in front of real people. All that plus Lord of the Rings and Aarons Sorkin reading series inside! Watch Hasan daily on Twitch at: https://www.twitch.tv/hasanabi Merch restocked at https://chapotraphouse.store/

The Commentary Magazine Podcast - Biden Is The Walrus, Koo-Koo Ca-Choo

The idea that Joe Biden is secretly dead seems to have taken hold among people on the Right, which doesn't make a lot of sense except when you consider just how conspiratorially Democrats have been behaving over the past couple of weeks—and how their behavior is stimulating conspiracy theories all over the place. Give a listen.

NPR's Book of the Day - Joyce Maynard follows ‘Count the Ways’ with ‘How the Light Gets In’

Joyce Maynard's new book, How the Light Gets In, is a sequel to her 2021 novel Count the Ways, both following a family grappling with a tragic accident, its aftermath and the expectations they have for one another. In today's episode, Maynard speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about some of the big questions behind both books – "What is a typical family? What is a good mother? Is there such a thing?" – and why she feels it's imperative for her characters to live fully in the world, which means bringing politics and current events into their stories.
