Descripción

The gap between the informed and the uninformed keeps growing. So why do you think you are informed? Where do you get your news? How do you know it is reliable? And are you actually seeking information, or just looking for someone to confirm what you already believe? Scientists say our brains are being overwhelmed by the constant stream of bad news, from politics and crime to wars, storms, and everything else flashing across our phones. Do you feel overwhelmed by the news? Do you turn it off, talk it out, exercise, pray, drink, doomscroll, or something else?

On today's show, Michael Jackson died on June 25, 2009, at the age of 50 after suffering sudden cardiac arrest at his rented mansion in the Holmby Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. His death was ruled a homicide caused by acute propofol intoxication. Scoot reviews some of Michael Jackson's most newsworthy moments. There are new rumors and hints about a possible Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding, with some already describing it as a "royal wedding." Thinking back on your own wedding, would you do anything differently? Spend less money, invite fewer people, worry less about details, or change one big decision? The latest controversy at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool now includes reports of dead ducks, as wildlife experts work to determine whether chemicals, algae, construction stress, disease, or something else is to blame. Is this a real environmental concern, a political embarrassment, or both?  Louisiana U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy reportedly got into a heated confrontation with President Trump during a closed-door Republican lunch over the war with Iran. Cassidy has been one of the Republican voices questioning the war and the deal with Iran that followed it. Is this a real split inside the GOP or a temporary disagreement over one of the biggest foreign policy decisions of Trump’s presidency?
