  • Even More News: Los Angeles Fires, The Misinformation Ecosystem, and a Free Medical Consultation
    Jan 10 2025

    Hi. On the first Even More News of 2025, Kaveh Hoda from "The House of Pod" is back to talk about the devastating fires threatening Los Angeles and how Mark Zuckerberg's decision to eliminate fact-checking on Meta will make our information environment even worse. Plus, we ask him a bunch of health questions since he's a doctor and it's easier than making an actual appointment.

    If you're able, here's where you can donate to support wildfire relief in Los Angeles:

    The California Fire Foundation gives short- and long-term support to communities impacted by wildfires - https://www.cafirefoundation.org/what-we-do/for-communities/disaster-relief

    World Central Kitchen is on the ground distributing food and water to affected areas - https://donate.wck.org/give/654000/
