This Week In Nope

This week we are joined by special guest Conor Dougherty, New York Times reporter and author of the new book “Golden Gates,” about the California housing crisis. We shut down the Battle of the Beans, a man-bites-seagull story out of England and the casting call for a Lord of the Rings prequel. Also: Deniece Williams’s iconic “Let’s Hear it for the Boy” is the latest installment in our NOPE Summer Music Series.    HEAR US ON ITUNES https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/this-week-in-nope/ OVERCAST https://overcast.fm/itunes1312654524/this-week-in-nope  SPOTIFY https://open.spotify.com/show/07WFZhd5bgY1l1BspArfRJ STITCHER https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/this-week-in-nope SOUNDCLOUD https://soundcloud.com/user-518735966/tracks POCKET CASTS https://pca.st/SrJY  RADIO PUBLIC https://radiopublic.com/this-week-in-nope-GAOx3N    In this week’s episode:  Watch “Let’s Hear it for the Boy” here.    Big #YUP to… Conor Dougherty for his fascinating book “Golden Gates,” which you can buy here.    In addition to Twitter, y
