Ep. 108: Stop Calling My Phone, Robot

Published: June 15, 2019, 4 a.m.

If there\u2019s one thing that everyone can agree on, it\u2019s that robocalls are an abomination. Last month, Americans received roughly five billion of them -- about 1,700 per second -- and spam calls rank as the top complaint to the Federal Communication Commission. This week, telecom reporter Kelcee Griffis joins us to explain the problem and why it\u2019s taken so long to fix. Also this week, an update on the "Varsity Blues" admission scandal; another round of copyright litigation for Led Zeppelin; and a musical update on New York City\u2019s favorite personal injury lawyers, Cellino & Barnes.
