b'"Before starting, I believe important news falls into two categories: things that\\u2019ll impact you and things you should be aware of. I don\\u2019t know what\\u2019ll impact you, but if you don\\u2019t follow the news, and you want to stay informed, this\\u2019ll get you aware of what\\u2019s going on."\\n\\nThis week\'s stories in detail: Jamal Khashoggi\'s death, Sears filing for bankruptcy, Canada legalizing cannabis, the Red Sox are in the World Series and predictions for the highest voter turnout since the mid 1960s.\\n\\nOther stories in the news that are important to note: \\n\\nElections are the ongoing in Afghanistan. \\n\\nOn Monday, a lawsuit filed against Harvard claiming bias against Asian-Americans in admissions arrived in a federal court.\\n\\nElizabeth Warren, a democratic senator from Massachusetts and likely presidential candidate, received a DNA test which identified Native American DNA in her from six to 10 generations ago. \\n\\nAnd, areas impacted by Hurricane Michael are still in recovery. It\\u2019s always important to remember the devastation of a storm lasts much longer than the storm itself. \\n\\nIf you want sources, you can find them on Twitter. Give us a follow at gn_apodcast.
