Update: 2019-08-10

Description

If you've ever thought that big corporate mergers don't affect you, you might be wrong. Mike shines a light on the constant bad hand that consumers get after mergers like the AT&T and Time Warner merger. Then, Writer for The Wirecutter and Editor for SoundStage! and JazzTimes, Brent Butterworth, tells us about the random tornado that came through his part of the greater Los Angeles area and why he's getting a new roof. Switching topics, we chat about cutting the cord, increasing entertainment bills, the effects of mergers on everyday Americans, and great ear protection for loud concerts. Tune in to learn more.
