PBS still airs the new episodes of Sesame Street; HBO just has a nine-month window of exclusivity for the new material. That was an important part of the agreement Sesame Workshop made with HBO in order to keep Sesame Street in production.
Now, they will be making a bunch of HBO Max-only spin-off Sesame Street shows, but the kids who just have over-the-air TV can still thankfully have Big Bird and then teach them numbers and letters. Just nine months later.
Regarding Marilyn Mosby, I do appreciate most of her work especially regarding Freddie Gray, but she really dropped the ball regarding the Keith Davis Jr case. There’s a lot of information regarding this case including a season of the podcast Undisclosed so I won’t go into all the details, but it’s a really bad look. The Undisclosed coverage of his case was thorough if anyone wants to check it out.
The Real ID program was started under Bush and will be required for any air travel including domestic. The deadline is October 1, 2020.

Also, the puppet addiction story upsets me a little because I sense they have a goal to reframe addiction as a disease instead of a character flaw. I don’t believe they would have done this if the majority of addicts were nob-white people.
