A week from midterms, the guys discuss prospects for Republicans in the House and Senate. Polls forecast that Democrat challenges to the Right’s incumbent candidates may flip the House. Meanwhile, contests for the Senate are tight even in Texas, a historically conservative stronghold.

Plus: the dangerous effects of AI technology on America's young people.
