Hot Topics: Rudy Giuliani "Associates" Arrested “The biggest mistake that he made is assuming that President Trump is loyal because the minute that he makes Trump look bad, he is going to be tossed right to the curb,” Abby Huntsman says. “I think it’s going to be really hard to convince Mitch McConnell and Republicans in the Senate to go through with impeachment. That being said, I think Democrats are going to have to focus much of their efforts if they want to get him out of office at the ballot box.” “We have now been speaking about it for three weeks, and we are still going be speaking about it because we’re now talking a criminal indictment,” guest co-host Ana Navarro says — but adds: “You are never going to convince Trump’s base to drop him.” Navarro continues: “Here’s what I would say to Republicans who, you know, this week are whining and crying and thrashing on the floor over the Kurds: He’s doing this a year before the election — what do you think he...

Moby Rich HOT TICKET: Moby Rich are coming to Brooklyn Steel on October 29th opening for Matt Maeson and in support of their recent release of their single “Loser” which will be featured on the upcoming Jay and Silent Bob Reboot Soundtrack in theaters October 15th. ABOUT MOBY RICH LA two-piece Moby Rich turn melancholy song craft into bold, pop hooks and visuals. The pair—Maxwell Joseph and Connor Pledger—relocated to LA in 2015 from Indianapolis and Atlanta respectively in search of, well, anything.

Writing the majority of their tracks on acoustic guitar, they sing every song in unison, a sort of whole-is-greater-than-the-sum-of-parts attitude, which speaks volumes of their close, almost twin-like, friendship. The first insight into Moby Rich’s unique...
