Also this hour: We meet astronaut Christina Hammock Koch, who will be the first woman to embark on a mission to the moon.

Then, the news that the PGA Tour will merge with its rival, the Saudi-backed LIV Golf, we discuss the concept of "sportswashing," a tactic countries sometimes use to deflect attention from their track records on human rights.
