They also ask fans for their *Ed policy* that they'd like to see Policy implement once he takes over next summer, and they try to figure out if Policy is actually a real person or AI-generated. What Matt Missed features content of Kim K seing SZA at Summerfest, Policy's AI-statement when he was announced this morning, and Jordan Love agreeing.. to get engaged!
