This Show
Part 1: Colonoscopy Camera Pill
Dale starts the show complaining about meetings he missed and cryptic station politics he can’t discuss yet, then shares that for the first time in his career, he woke up at 11:30 PM and fully dressed to come to work, thinking it was morning. The main topic is an Idaho lawmaker who asked if women could swallow a camera pill to examine a fetus during an abortion hearing — Carissa admits she didn’t understand the anatomy either, sparking extended discussion about her lack of biology knowledge. The show also touches on Dale’s colonoscopy discussion with Dr. Shaw, his father’s death, and Carissa’s attempts to quit smoking.
