Description

Political reporter for Reuters, Ginger Gibson joins us this week to talk about reports that President Trump is privately brooding and publicly roaring. According to reports, the President continues to privately fume over the Mueller investigation and is worried the Don Jr. might be in legal trouble over the infamous Trump Tower meeting. Publicly, the President is getting his base fired up at various rallies aimed at voter turnout for the midterm elections and a Twitter spat with LeBron James.

Next, as a global heatwave continues, there were many heat records broken last month. Los Angeles set an all-time high temperature record in July, Unprecedented heat in Europe led to wildfire outbreaks in Scandinavia, and South Korea also just set an all-time high on August 1. Andrew Freedman, Science Editor at Axios joins us to talk about the heatwave and what scientists say might be the first in more to come.

Finally, are you on social media too much? Well, now there’s an app for that. Actually, just some add-ons. Facebook and Instagram are getting new tools to let you know when you have been using the apps too much. Katie Bindley, Personal Tech Reporter for the WSJ, joins us to talk about how social media platforms are helping you cut back on using their own services.
