Adam and Jeff are joined by Wrestlemovia podcast hosts Logan Trent and John Reimann to talk about the recent weeks-long blackout in Gary, Indiana, a warehouse fire in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles that left residents breathing the scent of 85 million pounds of rotting meat for months, an LAPD whistleblower who wound up on the wrong side of the thin blue line, record breaking months for ICE and Flock both, and even more underreported news that should be getting national headlines.
