Chapo Trap House - 848 – Straight Drop Kitchen feat. Ryan Grim & Jeremy Scahill (7/8/24)

We’re joined by Ryan Grim & Jeremy Scahill of the NEW independent journalism venture Drop Site News. We look at how the Biden campaign meltdown has pushed the war in Palestine out of the news, and the relationship between Biden’s long history of bad policies and the current crises he’s leading. Plus, mainstream media’s failed coverage of both topics, and some Drop Site reporting on Democratic megadonors gives a glimpse into Joe Biden’s aggrieved and petty motivations.

The Indicator from Planet Money - The young trolls of Wall Street are growing up

Back in 2021, the meme stock frenzy was at its peak: Roaring Kitty AKA Keith Gill, and young day traders gleefully upended financial markets. Roaring Kitty disappeared for a bit before returning just a couple months ago.

His disciples that followed him into the markets, however, never left. That's according to Nathaniel Popper in his new book, The Trolls of Wall Street: How the Outcasts and Insurgents are Hacking the Markets.

Today on the show, why Nathaniel believes these day traders are here to stay and where they're putting their money now.

Bad Faith - Episode 387 Promo – Whose Fault Is The Supreme Court? (w/ Eric Segall)

Subscribe to Bad Faith on Patreon to instantly unlock this episode and our entire premium episode library: http://patreon.com/badfaithpodcast   Georgia State College of Law professor and host of Supreme Myths Eric Segall joins Bad Faith to talk about the impact of two recent SCOTUS rulings: Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, which ended Chevron deference and hobbled the authority of administrative agencies, and the Trump immunity case. What emerges, however, is a debate about what the left should do to address the ultra-conservative court and whether Biden is ultimately to blame for his unwillingness to take court reform seriously while Democrats controlled the House and Senate. Yet another spicy-yet-constructive debate for the books.   Subscribe to Bad Faith on YouTube to access our full video library.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The English Premier League

The most popular sports league in the world in terms of the number of people who follow and watch is the English Premier League. 

Unlike other sports leagues, the English Premier League is relatively new. It was only created in the early 90s in response to the poor condition of top-division football at the time. 

Since then, it has brought in billions in revenue for the clubs that have played in the league, as well as some of the world’s highest salaries for its players. 

Learn more about the English Premier League, how it was formed, and its possible future on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
