On the show this week, it's all about disrupting media-- from fake news to political legacies, and what's critical to know as you cast a ballot.

Featuring authors Cindy Otis and Jonathan Alter, both out with brand new books; highlights from journalists working in the field through COVID-19; and a segment from Inside Appalachia, an incredible podcast from West Virginia Public Broadcasting, celebrating Indigenous Peoples' Day.
