Ahead of the teen social media ban taking effect from this week, Os and Scott look at how the political debate over the ban has shifted, how the media has finally started reported on serious flaws in the legislation, and some of the issues that are already emerged in terms of how it will operate.

They discuss how effective it will actually be, and the risks with the government pursuing this policy over other forms of regulation.

Then they dive into Netflix's potential take over of Warner Bros, and why it is freaking out everyone in Hollywood. They examine how streamers like Netflix has transformed TV and film, largely for the worse, and why further consolidation in the entertainment industry is bad for artists and regular people.
