The Murder Squad

In this episode of The More You Know, we deliver a full yikes report straight from the latest news in pop culture. From Lizzo's legal dance-offs, to TikTok canceling true crime podcasts, to Netflix promising us a full slate of mediocrity, we've got it all covered in "The More You Nope". Plus Erin of Grievances pops in for a special moment.
