Greg, Brian, Cassidy, and Colin dredge through the developments in the ongoing uncoupling of Bill and Melinda Gates, then discuss the recent revelation that texts from Durkan, Best, and Scoggins from last summer, a period suspiciously overlapping with the abandonment of the East Precinct and subsequent creation of CHOP, are…missing (?!), and Interim police Chief Diaz quickly undoing a decision from the Office of Police Accountability.
