Summary

Meghan McCain and Miranda Wilkins are joined by Elisha Krauss for a conversation that spans the growing turmoil at CBS, the future of legacy media, and why the battle over journalism is becoming one of the biggest political stories in America. The discussion then turns to California politics, where voter frustration, shifting alliances, and unexpected candidates are reshaping the landscape ahead of major elections. Meghan, Miranda, and Elisha break down Democratic infighting, the controversy surrounding Graham Platner, the latest movement in Los Angeles politics, and what these races could signal for the future of the party. Plus: culture wars, media trust, Ozempic, beauty standards, and why authenticity may matter more than political labels in today's political environment. Whether it's the media, the Democratic Party, or California politics, one theme keeps emerging: voters are increasingly looking for people who feel real, even when they don't agree with them.
