Episode notes

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy says he plans to subpoena intelligence officials. Andrew Keen: There was speculation that this was a Russian hack similar to the leaks of John Podesta's hacked emails and the DNC's hacked emails in 2016.

This episode was produced by Amanda Lewellyn and Victoria Chamberlain, edited by Matt Collette, fact-checked by Laura Bullard, engineered by Paul Robert Mounsey, and hosted by Noel King.
