Key Topics:

  • First up, we'll be unraveling the chaos at Columbia and other esteemed Ivy League schools, where protest waves have crashed into the serene shores of academia. It's a tussle of ideologies that's got students, faculty, and the rest of us onlookers perched on the edge of our seats. Then, we'll pivot to the Biden administration's controversial Title Nine overhaul. There’s a lot of push and pull happening here, and women's safety and gender rights are smack in the middle of it all. Will the policies stand firm, or are we looking at a reshuffling of protections?
  • House votes are usually as dry as a toast, but not when they're about seizing Russian assets! In a financial heist worthy of a Hollywood plot, the House has tossed its dice into the game, hoping to siphon billions in frozen Russian goodies straight to Ukraine. We'll dissect what this means on the global chessboard of finance and power. Speaking of locking and unlocking, we're not talking about your latest smartphone features, but a real legal conundrum. A recent court decision has said it's A-OK for the police to force a suspect to press that finger onto a phone sensor. Security, privacy, rights—we'll explore what this ruling might mean for all those digital secrets tucked away in our pockets. Ever thought shopping for hardware could turn into a test of wits and reflexes? Well, at one Home Depot in New York, they're not taking any chances, rolling out security guards to keep the peace. It's an intriguing mix of safety concerns and social dynamics that has everyone talking.
  • And then our Shaking your Head Segment goes to Milan—land of high fashion, exquisite architecture, and, of course, lip-smacking street food. But what happens when a city that never sleeps decides to put its late-night munchies on a curfew? That's right, we're talking a ban on the beloved tradition of midnight gelato. Gelato-gate is stirring things up, and we'll be right in the mix, debating the implications for culture, economy, and maybe even the soul of the city. So, buckle up, because this episode is packed with the content you crave.
