Description

We are about a month away before the race for the Democratic nomination really starts to heat up.  The first debates are happening at the end of June and it is going to be a packed stage.  We will tell you who has qualified so far and also how the candidates are handling Fox News, some are refusing to go on the network and others are doing town halls. Ginger Gibson, political reporter for Reuters, joins us for a 2020 update including how Dems plan on paying for all their proposals.

Next, similar to a “Do Not Call” registry, momentum is growing for a “Do Not Track” registry.  A bill was just introduced by Sen. Josh Hawley which would legally require companies to stop collecting data on users who opt out of certain kinds of “non-essential “tracking.  Emily Birnbaum, tech policy reporter at The Hill, joins us for the effort to limit the collection of your data.

Finally, as more households are installing smart doorbells, some are using them as nature cameras, checking the video all day long and obsessing over the wildlife at their doors.  Some are even checking these doorbell streams about 30 times in a day saying it’s better that TV or social media. Sarah Needleman, tech reporter at the WSJ, joins us for the new nature cams.
