Episode Details

Mark Thompson has a wide-ranging final hour. He opens with the story of an LA honor student wrongfully deported under President Trump’s immigration crackdown, and questions growing Republican calls for expanded federal control—particularly over D.C. Then, Stef Foosh drops in to talk rideshare realities before Mark shares his epic tale of evacuating with his cats and permanently "upgrading" his car's interior with the scent of cat pee—until a corpse-grade odor eliminator saved the day. Mark also reacts to a wild CalMatters scoop: State Farm issued a $900K check to a fire survivor that bounced. Plus, what’s going on with Newsom’s presidential play in South Carolina? And Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion is going dark… for now.
