Next, Chris reports the news including: a meteorologist resigning after receiving death threats over his climate crisis coverage and a psychologist warning that relaxing with true crime may be a red flag. Finally, Adam talks to director Mark Pellington about his new movie ‘Survive’. They discuss the fall of Quibi, Mark’s time working at MTV in the 80’s, and the cyclical nature of music culture.
