This week, we discuss the sudden suspension of Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show and its entanglement with the Charlie Kirk assassination, the first amendment, free speech, Trump, and media consolidation. We reminisce about the late night ecosystem of our 90s and early 2000s youth and the loss of the monoculture. Is truth and reconciliation possible? Plus, college professors and free speech-is it fair to expect specific figures (like teachers, nurses, etc) to uphold a certain kind of moral seriousness in their position? What are we allowed and not allowed to expect?
