Ever wondered why anyone would munch on frozen jalapeno poppers? We kick off our episode with this peculiar habit before diving into a fresh review of M. Night Shyamalan's latest film, "Trap." From unexpected plot twists to its overall reception, we not only break down Shyamalan's newest work but also touch on his past hits and misses. But that's just the beginning. We then switch gears to dissect the remarkable start of Kamala Harris's presidential campaign, highlighting her strategic moves and the enthusiasm surrounding her rallies. Plus, we unpack the conservative media's role in labeling Harris as "unlikable."

Right-wing media's influence on political narratives is another hot topic on our list. After the January 6th events, narratives about Joe Biden's age and Kamala Harris's likability bled into mainstream consciousness. We compare Biden’s approach to promoting Harris with Trump's management of Pence during the pandemic, all while reflecting on Trump's surreal presidency and its lingering impact on today’s political climate. The conversation gets deeper as we explore how these media-fueled perceptions still affect voter behavior and public opinion as we head into another heated election season.

Finally, we bring you an in-depth look at Kamala Harris's choice of Tim Walz as her vice-presidential pick. From his powerful rally debut to his relatable personal attributes and strong stance on gun safety, we discuss how Walz could appeal to independent voters. We also tackle the hurdles facing Trump's campaign—public desensitization to his scandals and the media's normalization of his controversial actions. As we close, we ponder whether the opposition can dig up any dirt on Harris that could resonate with voters, given the ongoing barrage of issues tied to Trump. Don't miss this robust discussion that covers everything from quirky snacks to the future of American politics.
