Could you cover pharmaceutical financial incentives behind boosters, as well as the change in media and scientific community messaging on the safety of the mRNA vaccine post Biden election?

Can you please cover how the vaccine studies and rollout have neglected women's health and self-reported side effects? We're just now starting to see data collection on the vaccine's effects on menstrual cycles and etc, after months and months of women sharing that they're experiencing these "unanticipated" side effects. The CDC is still not warning women about these specific side effects even though they've been documented. This is yet another example of scientists treating women's bodies like miniature men, and contributing to the growing lack of trust.

I only lived there a year and politics aside, hypocrisy is most DEFINITELY a California value.

I think this is incorrect: "...nearly half the state wants him out, despite him being a Democrat in an overwhelmingly Democratic state." The recall is a tremendous waste of taxpayer money, especially considering that California is holding an election for governor on November 8, 2022. A better course of action for critics of Newsom would be to select a candidate who could defeat him in next year's election.

It's interesting. There is some polling that suggests at least close to half of Californians support "leave," though it's tough to imagine he's in that bad political shape now. The polls also seem to vary widely, so I'm not entirely sure where they are at the moment.
