Bad Faith - Episode 473 Promo – Democrats are Making the Case for Leaving the Party (w/ Nick Cruse)

Revolutionary Blackout Network co-founder Nick Cruse returns to Bad Faith to break down the liberal media meltdown over tepid efforts to push the party left. Not only are establishment politicians and commentators quick to decry the "message" of the AOC/Bernie rallies, David Hogg's efforts to primary old guard Democrats have been met with threats to oust him as DNC vice chair. Even James Carville is insisting that progressives leave the party. Broken clock-style, is Carville right? Also, Joe Biden joins The View and doubles down on his fitness to run while throwing Kamala under the bus, and Elizabeth Warren humiliates herself by refusing to admit that Biden hasn't been mentally fit since Rogue One was in theaters. Meanwhile, Bernie Sanders repeats Zionist propaganda on the Senate floor. Is this a party that can be saved?

The Indicator from Planet Money - It’s actually really hard to make a robot, guys

Robots have been a thing for a long time, but they've never quite met expectations. While AI has changed the game for chatbots, it's not quite so clear for robots. NPR science desk correspondent Geoff Brumfiel spoke to our colleagues over on our science podcast Short Wave on how humanoid robots are actually developing with the help of artificial intelligence. It was a fascinating discussion and so we are sharing that conversation with you today on the Indicator.

Consider This from NPR - Why covering the Vatican is a really tough reporting assignment

When NPR listeners think of reports from Italy or the Vatican, usually one name comes to mind: Sylvia Poggioli. She covered much more, of course, over the years - reporting across Europe and on the war in the Balkans.

But as Poggioli tells host Scott Detrow, for this week's Reporter's Notebook series, it was the Vatican, that in some ways, was her most challenging assignment.
