In case you've been living under a rock, we're in the heart of election season with the midterm elections just a few weeks away.

For one race in Pennsylvania, things got so heated - and lawn signs were stolen so often - that an Apple AirTag was used to locate the trash receptacle where all the stolen signs wound up.

We talk about the ways technology is bleeding into elections and political races.

Then, we discuss the Supreme Court case determining “fair use” and Prince's likeness. We talk about what's at stake and how technology will need to change or adapt based on the outcome.

Plus: is Sinead O'Connor's documentary missing her best song? Is Netflix launching an ad-free tier?
