Also, Kara and Scott unpack Alphabet's blockbuster earnings, and what a potential Clinton testimony in the Epstein case could mean. Then: Disney finally names Bob Iger's successor after years of drama, and The Washington Post slashes a third of its workforce in devastating layoffs. Is this Kara's moment to step in and buy it? Scott has some thoughts.
