    Jul 2 2026

    The Trump administration is increasing efforts to crack down on the birth tourism industry following renewed attention to birthright citizenship policies. Birth tourism refers to the practice of foreign nationals traveling to the U.S. to give birth so their children will receive automatic U.S. citizenship, sometimes with assistance from businesses that arrange travel and medical services. The Federation for American Immigration Reform supports stricter visa screening, investigations into birth tourism operations, and broader reforms to birthright citizenship laws, and Dan spoke with FAIR's Director of Investigations, Mateo Forero.

  • Canned Over a Can - Part 2
    Jun 30 2026

    Continued conversation about how a poor decision by a New York Knicks fan that was captured on video quickly turned into a fine and the loss of a job. A woman was caught emptying a Knicks-themed city trash can onto the street and walking away with the bin as a souvenir. After the video went viral, 40-year-old Angie Báez returned the trash can, was fined $175 for littering and impeding sanitation operations, and later lost her executive job at JPMorgan Chase. Dan asked whether you've ever been tempted to take a souvenir from a game, concert, or other event and whether any souvenir would be worth losing your job over.
