Summary

We'd love to hear your thoughts on the podcast. Take the survey here or at wbur.org/survey. Unlike when Hillary Clinton's emails were leaked in 2016, news outlets chose not to report on what was leaked from inside the Trump campaign. NPR media correspondent David Folkenflik joins us to discuss. Then, Waymo's robotaxis will soon be cruising on San Francisco's fastest and busiest roads. The San Francisco Chronicle's Ricardo Cano weighs in on what that means for the future of autonomous vehicles. And, a new HBO original documentary series explores the risks of trying to raise chimpanzees as members of the family. We speak with Eric Goode, producer and director of "Chimp Crazy."
