The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:05pm- During a Wednesday press briefing, Vice President JD Vance and White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt explained that Democrats have shut down the government as part of their fight to provide free healthcare to migrants residing in the United States illegally. 4:20pm- Did the government shutdown include audio on Capitol Hill? Chuck Schumer had some technical difficulties during an interview on Wednesday. 4:40pm- Will artificial intelligence kill us all (or at least take our jobs)? Rich and Justin are slightly concerned—Matt says he’s a big believer in economist Joseph Schumpeter’s theory of “creative destruction” and suggests we’ll all be made better off in the long run. PLUS, Matt reviews 2001: A Space Odyssey and Alien—he didn’t like either (infuriating everyone). And an autonomous Waymo vehicle gets pulled over for suspected drunk driving. Who gets the ticket?
