We’re fired up today on The Final Word because we’re sitting down with the brilliant Dr. Amanda Sturgill, host of the podcast, Unspun — the show that teaches you how to stop falling for the lies, the spin, and the “alternative facts” folks keep trying to feed us.

Sharp, funny, and full of receipts — this convo will have you seeing the news with brand‑new eyes.
