This week, we have a banter bonus: a chat with journalist and author Keach Hagey. Her new book, ‘The King of Content,’ is about the media empire built by Sumner Redstone.

We talk about Redstone’s acrimonious divorce from his wife Phyllis, who alleged physical and emotional abuse by Redstone. We also discuss Redstone’s extremely strained relationship with his daughter Shari, who after decades of being the only woman in the room, is now the first female media mogul.
