Hello, media consumers! Bryan and David are back to discuss Bari Weiss’s memo to her new employees and whether it is threatening. Then they talk about Marc Maron’s farewell podcast with Barack Obama. The two discuss Obama’s social media reluctance and why he isn’t he speaking out more (00:21). They also play the football audio of the week: Indiana coach Curt Cignetti as a Dan Jenkins character, Kurt Warner’s disbelief about the Broncos-Jets game, Adam Amin’s indulgence in Only in Journalism, and Tua Tagovailoa throwing his team under the bus (18:00). Next, they get into the worst questions asked at the White House, the Overworked Twitter Joke of the Week, and the latest edition of They’re Running: JB Pritzker edition (36:48). To wrap, they get into the latest on Pentagon press access, a Media Piss Test, and David Shoemaker Guesses the Strained-Pun Headline (44:53).
