Megan Rapinoe here. This week on A Touch More, we are live from New York for the Liberty's home opener with an extra special guest, Brianna Stewart. We talk about the Liberty's newest additions, the best lessons Stewie ever got from Sue, and what it was like to be at the Met Gala this year. And of course, we couldn't let her go without asking her about that 2024 foul call.
Check out the latest episode of A Touch More wherever you get your podcasts and on YouTube. Hey there, this is Peter Kafka. I'm the host of Channels, the show about what happens when tech and media collide. And this week, we're talking to Adam Mosseri, who runs Instagram and who also runs Threads. And he told me what Threads was originally going to be called.
I called it Textagram as a joke, which unfortunately stuck as a name for months before I managed to kill it. Textagram, great name. You're making me regret telling you this. That's This Week on Channels, wherever you listen to your favorite podcast.

I'm Scott Galloway, and this is No Mercy, No Malice. The super rich, the 0.1%, are turning their backs on America and the values that paved the way for their prosperity. Rise of Tologarchs, as read by George Hahn.
The 0.1% have insulated themselves from the general public with their own schools, healthcare, transportation, security, and justice system. The members of this rarefied class are unfazed by the chaos unfolding outside their gated properties. They're indifferent to Roe v. Wade's demise, immigration roundups, and rising prices at Walmart.
If a family member has an unwanted pregnancy or mobs arrive with pitchforks, they'll always have access to Mifepristone and residency in Dubai, London, or Milan. They're invested in hedge funds and fine art, not in the future of America.
With the means to hire shrewd defense attorneys and aggressive PR firms that weaponize social media bots, the super rich are protected by the law, but not bound by it. The lower 99% are bound by the law, but not protected by it. Living in their bubble, the extremely rich express shock and horror, but opt not to rock the $300 million boat.
along with prominent Republicans, Democrats, and corporate CEOs, they're brothers in the disarmament of our democracy. They're forging an unholy alliance, tolerating the descent into kleptocracy and the slow burn toward fascism.
