Summary

We start the show by asking listeners what their thoughts are on this new Odyssey movie Meredith Goldstein of Love Letters fame, discussing such bangers as "I'm considering using an AirTag to track my wife" and "She's 22. Her boyfriend is 44. She gets embarrassed to reveal the age gap to friends." The Boston Festival Orchestra joins for Live Music Friday. Faith Gordon, associate professor of law at Australian National University, discusses Ai, social media harms to children — and how social media bans for young kids and teens are and aren't working. Alejandra Caraballo, trans civil rights attorney, discusses the SCOTUS ruling on gender & sports. We end the show by asking listeners what they prefer: cakes or pies?
