Head in the Office

The Somali Right to Minnesota & the CNN Gambling Takeover


Listen Later

The boys gather to talk about the white supremacist rhetoric from Trump and other conservatives against Somali immigrants in Minnesota, honing in on a few fraud schemes to demonize the entire group. In other, also awful, news, CNN announced a partnership with the prediction market Kalshi to bring real-time betting odds into their reporting. From casual war profiteering to promoting destructive gambling addictions, what could go wrong with this partnership? Lastly, the boys denounce Netflix's acquisition of Warner Bros. and Fulnecky's growing celebrity.
