This week we are joined by special guest Conor Dougherty, New York Times reporter and author of the new book “Golden Gates,” about the California housing crisis. We shut down the Battle of the Beans, a man-bites-seagull story out of England and the casting call for a Lord of the Rings prequel. Also: Deniece Williams’s iconic “Let’s Hear it for the Boy” is the latest installment in our NOPE Summer Music Series.
