Show notes

The gang digs into the nearly $1.5 million in taxpayer money spent on ads praising President Trump. Where’s the line between a public-service announcement and campaigning on our dime? Then they turn to a study that found no clear improvement in students’ social wellbeing after a school smartphone ban. What should we expect these bans to accomplish, and what would convince us they aren’t working?
