Meghan and Miranda are joined by former Rep. George Santos, fresh out after 84 days served (including 41 days in solitary confinement) with his federal sentence commuted by President Trump. He walks us through the moment-to-moment reality of prison (moldy ceilings, expired food, the “shoe”), how he coped, who helped, and why he wants to channel the experience into prison reform and case review work (a la Alice Marie Johnson). We also hit: Why he says he was moved to solitary & how “protective custody” works. Mental health, re-entry, and the very relatable first shower/La Mer/skincare binge! NY politics: NYC mayoral race, congestion pricing, Kathy Hochul's vulnerabilities, and whether Elise Stefanik could win statewide Culture break: J.Lo's historic box-office flop, Katy Perry + Trudeau rumor mill, and the “diva down/diva up” jokes. On Kamala Harris' book & Pete Buttigieg: do voters care about identity, or competency? P.S. Miranda's live from Las Vegas (yes, that Flamingo sign), and the Cheryl Hines interview is up now on YouTube — thanks for the love on that one.

Mike Sperrazza, podcast and radio host from Buffalo, NY, joins Steve to talk about the growing political divide in America, the rising drug crisis, and the wild world of New York politics. He shares his perspective on what's driving the chaos and what it means for everyday Americans.

After TV's biggest night, Variety's Brent Lang highlights the true winners at the Emmy Awards: streamers. Congressional Budget Office Director Phillip Swagel offers a long-term view of the American economy and American wallets, and he sees signs of weakening. Plus, New York Governor Kathy Hochul has endorsed Zohran Mamdani for NYC Mayor, China ruled that Nvidia violated anti-monopoly law, and TikTok parent ByteDance is up against another divesting deadline for its U.S. business.  Phillip Swagel - 17:12Brent Lang - 28:20 In this episode:Joe Kernen, @JoeSquawk Becky Quick, @BeckyQuickAndrew Ross Sorkin, @andrewrsorkinKatie Kramer, @Kramer_Katie Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
