(In addition to your regularly planned episode of Factually, we’re bringing you a Friday news roundup where we check in on the week’s biggest stories as well as some that need amplification.)

This week, Adam is joined by journalist Brian Merchant and comedian Andrea More to talk about the mountain of wealth that boomers have hidden in a figurative mountain hoard, like some kind of greedy dragon that’s way too into Western shows on Paramount+. The group also talks about the growing cultural rejection of AI (whew!), and the already exhausting state of the California governor’s race.
