Boston Globe columnist Carine Hajjar and The Commercial Break’s Bryan Green debate whether Joe Rogan’s platforming of antisemitic conspiracies signals a deeper rot—or just the cost of open conversation. Plus: should Harvard be defunded? And will Kilmar Abrego Garcia stay in a Salvadoran prison? In Goat Grinders, we take aim at student driver bumper stickers, White Lotus star Aimee Lou Wood’s biting critique of SNL, and nothing left to stream. ﻿Theme by Max Kerman Produced by Corey WaraEmail us at <a href="mailto:thegist@mikepesca.com">thegist@mikepesca.com</a>To advertise on the show, contact <a href="mailto:sales@advertisecast.com">sales@advertisecast.com</a> or visit <a href="https://advertising.libsyn.com/TheGist">https://advertising.libsyn.com/TheGist</a>Subscribe to The Gist: <a href="https://subscribe.mikepesca.com/">https://subscribe.mikepesca.com/</a>Subscribe to The Gist Youtube Page: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4_bh0wHgk2YfpKf4rg40_g">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4_bh0wHgk2YfpKf4rg40_g</a>Subscribe to The Gist Instagram Page: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/pescagist/?locale=en_US%2Cen_GB%2Cen_US%2Cen_GB%2Cen_US%2Cen_GB%2Cen_US%2Cen_GB&amp;hl=am-et">GIST INSTAGRAM</a>Follow Mikes Substack at: <a href="https://mikepesca.substack.com/">Pesca</a> <a href="https://mikepesca.substack.com/">Profundities | Mike Pesca | Substack</a> Learn more about your ad choices.

EP 19 | Austin Berg & Eric Zorn

Approaching the news from distinctly different points on the political spectrum, host Mike Pesca, and a rotating group of panelists, attempt to change each other's minds on the most important stories of the day.
