Activist, former educator, and podcast host Sabrina Salvati discusses the new indictments on tax evasion Hunter Biden faces, whether contempt of Congress should be added to them, increasing congressional pressure on universities over antisemitism, huge donors pulling funding from Ivy League universities over what some call criticism of Israel and others antisemitism, what low approval ratings for both US President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump spell for each with less than a year left in the election, and how Freedom Caucus tactics in the House of Representatives compare to the actions of the Squad.

The Misfits also discuss Israel’s escalation of airstrikes on Gaza, fish and fowl price fixing, as well as this week’s News of the Weird, including Festivus traditions, a self-inflicted rabies shot.
