Mamet: I want to do a lightning round on some of the ad spots you've put out, which have gotten very popular on social media. Let's go over some of the hits starting with your viral response to that Dr. Oz video. Then there's the video with Snooki from the Jersey Shore pointing out Oz lives in New Jersey, not Pennsylvania. And finally the new clip comparing Oz with Dr. Nick from The Simpsons.
Pennsylvania Lt. Governor and Senate candidate John Fetterman and Kara share a few things in common. As she puts it: they were both born in Pennsylvania, both wear sloppy clothes and both have survived a stroke. Kara’s hit 11 years ago, while Fetterman’s came last May. But for Fetterman, who is recovering steadily, that health incident has been weaponized against him in the race against Dr. Oz. In this conversation, Fetterman explains why it won't stop him in a contest that is critical for Democrats — one of the party’s best shots at flipping a seat and maintaining control of the Senate.
Before the interview, Kara and Nayeema talk about Elon Musk’s latest antics, including efforts to make the Twitter deal contingent on financing and dabbling in Russia-Ukraine peace plans. They also look at the jam that President Biden finds himself in 4 weeks before the midterms, and Kara offers unsolicited advice to ... everybody.
