Authorities in Los Angeles will soon consider charges in the killing of iconic film director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer. Politico reports on Reiner’s life as a political activist. Jimmy Lai, a major pro-democracy leader in Hong Kong, was convicted of collusion and sedition. Hong Kong Free Press editor Tom Grundy breaks down the case and its implications. An investigation revealed how major dollar-store chains routinely overcharge customers. The Guardian’s Jocelyn Zuckerman explains how shelf prices don’t always match what shows up at the register. Plus, a JetBlue flight narrowly averted a collision with a U.S. military plane, how the victims of the Brown University shooting are being remembered, and why the man being hailed as a hero for disarming a shooter in the Bondi Beach attack says he’d do it all again. Today’s episode was hosted by Gideon Resnick.
