Shownotes Transcript

Jon Stewart goes live after the first presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Filled with face-offs over abortion access, border control, and for some reason eating cats? Jon breaks down what this all means for the election. Plus, former Microsoft CEO, LA Clippers owner, and founder of USAFacts Steve Ballmer discusses why he launched his website, USAFacts, as a nonpartisan resource for people to understand the scope, context, and efficacy of the government’s spending. They also talk about the ways in which democracy and capitalism influence each other, and how that relationship might need more checks and balances, especially when it comes to healthcare and labor.
