Transcript: America This Week, Episode 65, “Emergency Election”

America is crumbling, but that's not the reason the poll news is bad. Walter and Matt on the clash between "dirt" and "digital" realities. Plus, "Emergency," by Denis Johnson

On America This Week, we'll usher in the campaign 2024 landscape by discussing burning freeways in Los Angeles, the cleanup of fentanyl strewn streets in San Francisco, the collapse of a parking garage over the Amtrak tracks in New York versus social media and all the things we're not allowed to talk about. Plus, Dennis Johnson’s “Emergency,” a hilarious story that's weirdly apropos, it turns out, to the subject of this week's discussion.
