Charles Manson famously said, “You can't kill me. I'm already dead.” I thought about that quote as the 60 Minutes scandal erupted, with a conversation between reporter Scott Pelley and newly hired producer Nick Bilton. From the NYT:“She is murdering ‘60 Minutes,'” [Scott Pelley] said. “She does not love this place. She was brought in to kill it, and she's been doing exactly that.”Mr. Pelley added: “She has no qualifications for her job; you have slender qualifications for this job. The changes that she's made at the ‘Evening News' have been catastrophic, so why should we expect that any of this is going to be any better?”Mr. Bilton responded: “Well, I will show you. That's what I have to say. That is my plan over the next two weeks. I'll be meeting with everyone. I'm very excited to meet with everyone, yourself included.”Needless to say, it didn't exactly go as planned. Several sanctimonious “don't you know who I am” statements later, Pelley was out. 60 Minutes isn't quite dead, but it is a relic of the past. In the 1990s, it was pulling in 20-30 million viewers. That dropped to 14-16 million in the 2000s. By the 2010s, it was down to 10-12 million. Now, just 9 million people tune in every week in a country of 340 million. Much of that is due to the changes in technology, but still. There is no doubt that 60 Minutes, like all of legacy media, is trapped inside the same bubble that thinks Jimmy Kimmel's nightly monologue is still relevant, believes the Oscars still represent the majority of moviegoers, and that the New York Times has its finger on the pulse of everyday America. Like so much of what we might call “resistance era culture,” there doesn't seem to be a place for 60 Minutes in our culture now, beyond being a propaganda tool for the Democrats, which explains why so many of them feel a profound sense of loss now that Bari Weiss was brought in to give them a refresh. Pelley's statement to call out the new management at 60 Minutes was the hissy fit heard round the world. The irony is that his statement is itself bad journalism. He throws around serious allegations without offering any concrete examples:Pelley has since talked to the New York Times to explain what he means by some of this, but even still, these are all examples of his own bias, one he can't see and refuses to admit even exists. Instead, he insists that 60 Minutes is now showing bias simply by representing the other point of view.In the interview, he explains how Bari Weiss wanted him to portray the other side of the story in the killing of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. He says he did not think she drove her car into the officer or that Pretti was in any way violent. While that doesn't mean they should have lost their lives, there is no question that they were at war with federal officers in a way we've never seen since the last Civil War. His bias was front and center at a speech in 2025, where his mass delusions about what this country has become were laid bare. This guy was willing to give Bari Weiss a chance, come on.Already a legend in his own mind, Pelley is writing his own legacy now as a self-made hero who stood up to the fascist regime.Here is Michael Moynihan: A Woketopia, if You Can Keep ItSome say 60 Minutes never recovered from its biggest scandal, when CBS Corporate forced the show to censor an interview with Big Tobacco whistleblower Jeffrey Wigand, as depicted in Michael Mann's brilliant film The Insider. The Hollywood of today would never make a movie like that unless it somehow blamed Trump and the Republicans. Not only wouldn't they make it, but they couldn't make it, no one inside the empire would allow it because, contrary to their own mass delusions, the fascism was always coming from inside the house — all sticks of wood bound together as one, where no dissent is allowed.I look around now, and I see relics of the old empire. They're frantic and wild-eyed. They're terrified that it all came crashing down. They don't know why America turned away. But I do. We never set out to build an empire. For us, it was riding the wave of new technology, new social media, a new computer in our pockets, and a brand new president to bring us into the promised land.It was not Donald Trump's fault that our empire collapsed. It was the old cliche about how power corrupts. We acquired too much of it. Every company, institution, celebrity, movie studio, publishing house, and ordinary person has a social media platform. If you controlled social media, you could control them. Our public humiliation factory kept everyone in line, lest they be “it” on social media.That was true even before Trump won, but the tweak to the algorithm in 2017, Donald Trump becoming president and ruling over Twitter at the same time, sent those of us inside the empire into waves of uncontrollable mass hysteria. Many of them would never come out of it and are still locked in the spell of the mass delusion that a “fascist dictator, racist, rapist, criminal, pedophile” won the election in America not once, but twice. Somebody had to be lying. Pelley simply can't tell the story the other way because he can't see it. He's still inside of it. I see them now, those who bought the dream like I did, befuddled as to what to do next. They just want their power back, their empire, their utopia. Use fear, that always works to drive lazy voters to the polls. Fear of what? Tax cuts for the rich? Fox News? No, fear of the big things, the existential things, like “fascism” and “democracy.”How do you even come back from that and make a pitch to the people that you should be put back in power to rule over a country you believe is under a Nazi occupation? How does Bruce Springsteen, Robert De Niro, Barbra Streisand, Katie Couric, Ellen DeGeneres, not to mention every single Democrat politician, come back from that?Maybe it's the effect of the internet on our brains, but the so-called “resistance” seems to have lost touch with the tangible reality of history, of what it looks like to fight real fascism. What Nazis really were. When you can make any reality you want, why wouldn't you?They are fine with the guy who has a Nazi tattoo because to them, that isn't real. Of course, leave it to Salena Zito to do the job of a real journalist and remind us:70-80 million people died in World War II fighting to save the world from a fascist dictator, a real one. How can these people live with themselves by spreading the lie that we are living through anything like that now? And that, more than anything, is why the empire collapsed. It was built on a foundation of delusions and lies. Bari Weiss and the Fourth TurningI have Bari Weiss to thank for starting this Substack. Very few people had the courage or the moxie to stand up to the Twitter mob back in 2020, but she did. I was on Twitter the night the mob came for her. The screeching scolds had already been nipping at her heels at the New York Times after she was brought in to shake up the ideological chokehold the Left had on the paper (and still does). They hated her, gossiped about her, shunned her, and yet, there she was, showing up anyway. She is built of stronger stuff than the kind of person who would ever crumple under the weight of the mob. Tom Cotton's essay, Send in the Troops, reflected the views of most Americans, that if the riots over the Summer could not be controlled, the military should be brought in. Their opinions did not matter to the mob or, apparently, to the New York Times. While 60 Minutes spent many stories on January 6th, they barely touched the riots in the Summer of 2020. They didn't talk about the false narrative of Jacob Blake in Kenosha. That was left to local reporters.They never told the other side of the story because no one did until Bari Weiss tried and was smacked down in a way that woke me up. It was like the lantern dropping out of the sky in The Truman Show. It punctured the delusion at long last, and I realized that I was not getting the truth from the legacy media. They were lying to us and gaslighting us because Trump had to lose the election, and nothing else could matter. But the truth still mattered to me. And it mattered to Bari Weiss. Eventually, she would launch a Substack revolution with The Free Press and urge others to follow her. And so I did. Weiss is a millennial, the generation that's to take the baton from the Baby Boomers, per the book, The Fourth Turning. You can see this unfolding everywhere, but perhaps nowhere as profoundly as with what happened at the Times and now at 60 Minutes.Here is how the Times' Lulu Garcia-Navarro's interview with Pelley went on how he came to know Bari Weiss:Um, yeah, sure pal. That sounds like padding for an upcoming lawsuit, not the truth. There is no way the Scott Pelley, who gave that speech at Wake Forest, is going to give someone hired by David Ellison “the benefit of the doubt.” That he had never even heard of Bari Weiss or had no idea any scandal had erupted at the Times over the Tom Cotton op-ed says it all. The Fourth Turning is like winter. The old must die to make way for the new. Trump didn't collapse the empire on his own, but he's a “Gray Champion” all the same. The one Baby Boomer who could tear it all down to make way for the millennials, like Bari Weiss, to reshape the future for the generations to come.MAGAIn 2020, I escaped the Doomsday Cult our empire had become and was searching for signs of life, for truth, for something that felt real. I began driving across the country and saw an America that people like me had forgotten even existed. It wasn't a virtual world where we make our own reality. It was a tangible place, with things people built with their own hands. It was farms, churches, town squares, neighborhoods, highways, and factories. What we built online had no place for this America. If you never understand that, you'll never understand MAGA. From the hills, the backyards, and the fields, one name called out from this forgotten America: Trump.Even now, in 2026, these signs still stand. Not just in one state, in nearly every state. Trump is not in power because he's a fascist. He's in power because we, the people, put him there to fight for us against the mighty empire that was like a black hole, sucking all of American society into it.Anyone who thinks Bari Weiss would do Donald Trump's bidding at CBS News is living in a fantasy. They don't know her, they don't know him, and they most certainly do not know this country anymore. It doesn't seem like it's asking too much for guys like Scott Pelley to snap out of it at long last and to realize this is a big country with lots of different kinds of people in it. And all of them have the same right to representation. If the culture stopped speaking to them and the government stopped representing them, well, it's all over but the shouting.// This is a public episode.

Trevor and Eugene sit down with author and journalist Katie Couric, who has spent decades at the center of American news, for a wide-ranging conversation about how journalism has evolved. From her early days in traditional broadcast media to her role in today's digital landscape, Couric has seen the shift from a handful of trusted voices delivering the news to a fragmented, fast-moving media environment where competing narratives often shape how stories are understood. From the evolution of political identity to the influence of social media, the three explore how the way we consume news has changed, and what it might take to rebuild a shared sense of truth in a world that increasingly resists one.

A terrifying chain of events is set in motion, forcing Viveca to confront what happened on a shattering Halloween night in high school when she had a different name, a different face, a different voice. Who is the man contacting her now and was he really the best boy on her most famous film, Misty? Why can't she remember him—or that night? A taut psychological thriller, Best Boy explores identity, memory, and the dangerous power of forgetting.   For more information about Deborah Goodrich Royce and her new release, Best Boy, along with information about the Ocean House Author Series, visit deborahgoodrichroyce.com

Have you ever been so consumed by someone just out of reach that you checked your phone obsessively, fantasized endlessly, and somehow wanted them even more because they weren't fully available? There's actually a name for it — and in this episode of Pleasure in the Pause, Gabriella sits down with journalist, author, and limerence expert Amanda McCracken to talk about why so many of us get stuck chasing love instead of receiving it.At the heart of this conversation is a truth so many midlife women are quietly sitting with: we are all longing to be truly seen. But real love only becomes possible when we believe we are worthy of receiving it.Amanda McCracken is an award-winning journalist passionate about experiences that highlight the intersection of wellness, travel, and relationships. Her work has appeared in The New York Times, Washington Post, Guardian, Vogue, National Geographic, Elle, NPR, Outside, ESPN, SELF, Runner's World, and many others. She published her first article about longing in 2013, which led to additional articles featuring personal anecdotes and deep research and interviews with the BBC and Katie Couric. She is now considered a “limerence expert” and intimacy advocate. Her 2023 TED Talk, “How Longing Keeps Us From Healthy Relationships,” and her podcast, The Longing Lab, highlight how longing can become self sabotaging and shares how to change our patterns of longing. McCracken is also a part-time university instructor, massage therapist, triathlon coach, and competitive athlete. Highlights from our discussion include:What limerence actually is, how it differs from a crush, and why today's dating culture — apps, social media, hookup culture — makes it more common than ever.Why the brain gets hooked on the chase: the trigger, the behavior, and the dopamine reward loop that keeps so many of us stuck.The moment Amanda realized she was more comfortable longing for love than actually having it — and what that revealed about her deeper fear of intimacy.The practical tools that helped her break the pattern, including cognitive reappraisal, nervous system work, EMDR, and a nightly mantra her therapist gave her.What healthy, realistic love actually feels like in midlife — and why Amanda says she trusted her husband before she loved him.CONNECT WITH AMANDA MCCRACKEN:WebsiteMy book: When Longing Becomes Your LoverMy podcast: The Longing LabWatch my TEDx talkRead my NYT story on limerenceInstagram: @amandajmccrackenTikTok: @thelonginglabCONNECT WITH GABRIELLA ESPINOSA:InstagramLinkedInWork with Gabriella! Full episodes on YouTube.The information shared on Pleasure in the Pause is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this special edition of the program.Today, we mark the end of an era in American broadcasting — the closing chapter of CBS News Radio, which has announced it will cease operations after nearly a century on the air, this coming May 22.For 99 years, CBS News Radio has been more than a network. It has been a voice — steady, trusted, and present at some of the most important moments in modern history.From the crackling urgency of World War II broadcasts, to the calm authority of reporters bringing the world into American homes, CBS helped define what radio journalism could be. It set the standard — for accuracy, for immediacy, and for storytelling that made listeners feel not just informed, but connected.In this special episode, we look back at that legacy.You'll hear archival moments that capture the power of radio at its peak — including wartime reporting that brought distant battlefields into living rooms, and behind-the-scenes reflections on how CBS News Radio operated, adapted, and helped build the very foundation of modern broadcast journalism.Because what we do today — in this medium, in podcasting — did not emerge in a vacuum.It was built on the work of those who came before. The pacing, the storytelling, the intimacy of voice — all of it traces back to institutions like CBS News Radio.This is, in many ways, the grandfather of what we do today.And that's why this moment carries a certain weight.It is not just the end of a network. It is the closing of a chapter that began when radio itself was still new — when the idea of hearing the world, as it happened, was nothing short of revolutionary.Today, we honor that contribution.We remember the voices, the moments, and the legacy.And we say goodbye.

Colorectal cancer is one of the few cancers that can often be prevented through screening, yet far too many people aren’t getting screened on time. In this episode of Medically Speaking, Dr. Eve Glazier welcomes back the show’s very first guest, award-winning journalist Katie Couric, for an ongoing conversation and call to action for Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. Joined by Fola May, MD, PhD, UCLA gastroenterologist, and researcher, they discuss what’s changed in the conversation around colorectal cancer, why screening matters more than ever, the symptoms people should never ignore, and how to choose among today’s screening options. They also explore the barriers that keep people from follow-through — and why turning awareness into action can save lives.

The conversation then shifts to New York City politics: Sid criticizes City Council Speaker Julie Menin for publicly calling him Islamophobic while he supports Councilmember Vicki Paladino, noting attorney Jim Walden represents her amid a censure effort. They discuss allegations about Mayor Mamdani's wife's social media activity and anti-Israel work, and Kilmeade urges ongoing exposure while expressing support for Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman's campaign against Governor Hochul.

Talk about a starving man looking for a meal. That's a big reach, Gav.Speaking of Gavin Newsom, Katie Couric asked him, “Do you have a Zoolander problem?” Gavin, are you just too good-looking and slick? [X] SB – Katie Couric asks Gavin Newsom ZoolanderLots to cover today, mostly because I dedicated Friday to Candace Owens.She works hard for the money!I avoided discussing her, because I'm not interested in her. But I am interested in things that impact the conservative movement.I had put her on the list to never discuss, like I did with Jazzy. But I felt compelled to cover it, and I will on touch on her and Jazzy where it proves useful to make bigger points.As we consider our movement which has little to do with us, and more to do with what we leave for our kids and grandkids, I want to remind you that Democrats are indeed crazy and look at the world through “trip glasses”, or what people on drugs wear to enhance the experience.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to the Joe Concha Show, where liberalism is a no-go and today's political theater gets a serious reality check. In this episode, Joe breaks down the sudden ousting of Kristi Noem from the Department of Homeland Security and the naming of former MMA fighter Markwayne Mullin as her cool-as-a-cucumber replacement. Joe doesn't hold back on California Governor Gavin Newsom, roasting his bizarre "Zoolander" interview with Katie Couric and his shape-shifting, far-left pandering to win the presidency. You'll also hear why Hollywood legend James Woods left the Democratic party, how sports media personalities like Jemele Hill have gone woke, and why Democratic consultant Julian Epstein thinks his party's only hope for 2028 is JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon. Finally, Joe tackles Donald Trump's flawless "Tom Brady" primary endorsement record, Adam Schiff's sudden hypocritical concern over the cost of war, and Joe Rogan's latest viral broadcast.

In this episode of The Sisterhood of Sweat, we sit down with conversation expert and storyteller Kalina Silverman, the creator of the global movement Make Big Talk and author of the new book Big Talk: How to Skip the Small Talk, Make Meaningful Connections, and Enrich Your Life. Kalina's journey started with something many people quietly experience—loneliness. While away at college, she realized she was surrounded by people yet still struggling to form meaningful friendships. Instead of accepting surface-level conversations, she began asking deeper questions that moved past small talk and opened the door to real connection. That experiment turned into a viral video series and eventually a global movement encouraging people to ask better questions and build deeper relationships. Today, Make Big Talk events and conversations are happening around the world, helping people connect in a more authentic and human way. Kalina's work also took on a powerful new dimension in 2025 when she partnered with GoFundMe to highlight survivors of devastating Los Angeles wildfires. Traveling to burned neighborhoods and damaged homes, she asked one simple but powerful question: What did you lose? The emotional conversations that followed introduced the world to survivors like Walt, Willie, and Dorothy. These raw, human stories spread across social media, generating millions of views and helping raise more than $2 million in donations for recovery efforts. The project earned Kalina a Shorty Impact Award for Emergency Relief storytelling. With the release of her new book Big Talk, Kalina is helping people learn how to move beyond surface-level conversations and create deeper connections in friendships, relationships, work, and everyday life. Her work has attracted the attention of some of the biggest names in media, including Maria Shriver, Anderson Cooper, and Katie Couric, who are all fans of her work and the powerful impact of meaningful conversation. In this conversation, we explore why small talk often leaves people feeling disconnected, how asking better questions can transform relationships, and why authentic storytelling can create real change in communities. What we discuss in this episode: • Why small talk often keeps people feeling isolated • How one question can unlock meaningful connection • The moment Kalina realized deeper conversations change lives • How Make Big Talk grew from a college idea into a global movement • The emotional wildfire survivor stories that helped raise millions in relief • Why meaningful conversations are more important than ever in a digital world • Practical ways to connect with anyone—even if you're shy or socially anxious Kalina's work reminds us that connection isn't about saying the perfect thing. It's about creating space for honesty, curiosity, and empathy. If you've ever struggled with awkward conversations, felt lonely in a crowd, or wished relationships felt deeper and more meaningful, this episode will completely change how you think about talking to people.

Send us a textEp ---273 In today's roller coaster ride episode, I start with an urgent message I need you to deliver to Andy Cohen about the Nerds Juicy Gummy Clusters he's promoting in his 2026 Super Bowl commercial — a brand new Florida Department of Health study just revealed alarming levels of arsenic in popular candies, and wait until you hear how many pieces a child can safely eat in an entire year… it's disturbing and I'm listing every brand that tested positive so you can protect your families. Then I do a deep dive into Bronwyn Newport's new relationship with model Brandon Goode — I'm breaking down who really orchestrated this public debut. Next I'm exposing a scandal brewing around Bozé Saint John from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and the IVF clinic she's been featuring on the show — Dr. Cindy Duke's Nevada Fertility Institute owes over $159,000 in rent, patients showed up to locked doors, and now people's embryos are at risk… this is getting very serious. I then give you a massive update on the Nancy Guthrie missing persons case — Savannah Guthrie's mom — including new details about the ransom notes, the kidnapper is likely someone deeply embedded in the Bitcoin community based on the cryptocurrency patterns I'm seeing. And THEN, I take you on a journey through the newly released Jeffrey Epstein emails — we're talking Frédéric Fekkai and a mysterious "Boom Boom" invitation involving Prince Andrew, Katie Couric getting coached by publicist Peggy Siegel on what to tell the press, Michael Wolff sharing intel about Steve Bannon and Trump, a jaw-dropping dinner party scheme to lure Woody Allen using Charlie Rose, George Stephanopoulos, Chris Cuomo and more, Soon-Yi Previn defending another famous predator to Epstein in a way that will make your skin crawl, Naomi Campbell's suspicious communication pattern that mirrors Ghislaine Maxwell's and Jean-Luc Brunel's, questions sent to Epstein about Donald Trump watching young girls and hidden cameras that I've never heard asked before, the Mossad connection mentioned 20 times including a bombshell exchange with former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, and a haunting email Epstein sent about Robert Maxwell threatening the Mossad that reads like a cryptic warning. I close with a fascinating story about the dark history of Palm Beach involving Joe Rogan, the Bradley brothers, and what really happened to the Black community on that island .Full episode only available at Dishing Drama Dana Patreon,it's only $6.00 a month, join the fun! https://www.patreon.com/cw/DishingDramaWithDanaWilkeySupport the showDana is on Cameo!Follow Dana: @Wilkey_Dana$25,000 Song - Apple Music$25,000 Song - SpotifyTo support the show and listen to full episodes, become a member on PatreonTo send Dana information, show requests and sponsorships reach out to our new email: dishingdramadana@gmail.comDana's YouTube Channel

On today's episode, Oliver Burkeman (bestselling author of Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals) and Kate unravel some of the beautiful lies we cling to about time and control, the fantasy of hyper-efficiency, and what it might look like to embrace the limits that make us who we are. In this conversation, Kate and Oliver discuss: Some of the most common self-help myths that stand in our way Why the relentless pursuit of self-improvement often leaves us feeling empty, anxious, and overwhelmed. How embracing our limits can lead to more contentment This is a conversation about limits—not as something to overcome, but as a doorway to something richer, deeper, and (dare I say) more human.

Katie Couric is a journalist and the first woman to solo-anchor a major network evening newscast.  We explore the disintermediation of news media, institutional distrust, and the fragmentation of shared truth in America. Katie shares her experiences navigating the CBS boys club, her perspective on the Sarah Palin interview, the craft of asking great questions, her cancer advocacy work after personal tragedy, and what she's learned about happiness.  Along the way, Katie admits she's never been addicted to anything—until now.  With four decades of perspective, Katie doesn't hold back.

"I just feel like when I see injustice, at this point in my life, I have to call it out." Katie Couric has been my idol since I was in high school, and it's truly an honor to welcome her to the Ali on the Run Show! We recorded this episode in person together on the Monday after the 2025 New York City Marathon, at Katie's home on the Upper East Side. Katie is a journalist who is best known for her 15-year career on the Today Show. Today, she is the founder of Katie Couric Media, where she publishes a daily newsletter (Wake Up Call), and hosts the podcast Next Question with Katie Couric. She is the author of Going There, she's a mom of two, and she's an avid pickleball player who, despite my best efforts, will not be signing up for a marathon anytime soon!

"They play 'New York, New York,' and everyone goes crazy." It was another New York City Marathon to remember. It was one of the most rewarding weekends of my life and of my career. I hosted a live show with Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone at Jazz at Lincoln Center, I was on the ESPN and ABC broadcasts on race day, I interviewed Katie Couric for the Ali on the Run Show, and I was on top of the world the entire time.

In this honest, funny, and sometimes raw conversation with Katie Couric, the bestselling author, podcaster, and professor Scott Galloway opens up about his new book Notes on Being a Man. In it, he’s on a mission to set out a kind of code for modern masculinity grounded in his “three Ps” (protect, provide, and procreate) and he calls on all of us to step up and support the young men in our lives. But… where does this call to support young men leave women, whose rights are under siege? Katie reads him a Reddit critique about just that (and he actually kinda agrees with it).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Megyn Kelly opens the show discussing her experience with her kids at Charlie Kirk's incredible memorial service, and how it united people and drew them closer to God. Then The Daily Wire's Michael Knowles, host of "The Michael Knowles Show," joins to discuss the faith-focused memorial, Erika Kirk's incredible strength and forgiveness, the cultural shift to the right, the radical left's response to the memorial event and remarks by Trump and Stephen Miller, their demand that the right call for unity despite the violence we're seeing done for leftist causes, and more. Then Megyn discusses gaslighting from the left, the corporate media's role in fueling political violence, attempts by some in the media to make this moment about themselves, Matthew Dowd's self-centered comments complaining about the fact that non one's talking about his MSNBC firing, Katie Couric bizarrely critiquing the network, Van Jones speaking out about his final private exchange with Charlie Kirk, his original false smear of Kirk claiming he was being racist, Megyn's own history with Van and why he's a coward about what he says publicly vs. privately, and more. Knowles- https://www.dailywire.com/ Birch Gold: Text MK to 989898 and get your free info kit on goldGrand Canyon University: https://GCU.eduKars4Kids: Call 1-877-kars4kids or visit https://kars4kids.org/MKByrna: Go to https://Byrna.com or your local Sportsman's Warehouse today.  Follow The Megyn Kelly Show on all social platforms:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/MegynKellyTwitter: http://Twitter.com/MegynKellyShowInstagram: http://Instagram.com/MegynKellyShowFacebook: http://Facebook.com/MegynKellyShow Find out more information at:https://www.devilmaycaremedia.com/megynkellyshow Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
