Episode 376: Neal and Toby explain Venezuela’s key election results have some big question marks which causes a bigger concern about its economic health. Next up they chat about McDonald’s struggling to get consumers back while sales have declined for the first time in 4 years. Then, Elon Musk shares an AI deepfake video of a Kamala Harris political ad on his X profile, which evidently violates X’s own media policies. Plus, colon and rectum cancer among under-50 year olds are on the rise and leaving researchers scrambling to find a reason why. Meanwhile, Toby shares the trend of breakout Olympic stars outside of their respective sport, such as US rugby player Ilona Maher. Lastly, a roundup of the biggest news from the Olympics.
