In Gelf Magazine's weekly podcast, The Hack and The Flack, journalist Michael Myser—the hack—and PR guru Merrill Freund—the flack—break down the news of the week. From their different perspectives, Michael and Merrill discuss sports, tech, politics, and media—much like Gelf.

In this week's episode, Michael and Merrill go rogue on Palin's new book—and on the elite liberal media that's playing into her hands. Plus, they talk Droid v. iPhone, again; dissect Bill Belichick's big call; and more. Click here to listen to the podcast.
