The Cornell 57 w. Marisa Lagos & Kathryn Anne Edwards

Erin and KQED’s Marisa Lagos take a look at the democrats’' national polling surge, analyze the heck is going on in California politics, and look into the horrific yet familiar Cornell 7 sexual assault case. Then labor economist Kathryn Anne Edwards joins to demystify everything from the job market to the AI bubble. They wrap up with a petty conversation about the WNBA finals and killer e-bikes.
