The Playoffs

Gelf's podcasters mark a win for the birthers.

Michael Myser and Merrill Freund

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 say Obama goofed by throwing a bone to birthers; watch privacy succumb to location trackers; fear a lengthened baseball postseason; sound the death knell for Twitter; and head west. Click here to listen to the podcast.

You can email Michael, Merrill, and Gelf to let us know what you think.
