NBC Sports anchor and reporter Trenni Kusnierek joined us to discuss USA Gymnastics in the aftermath of the Larry Nasser sex abuse scandals and a 30 year-old runner redefining “elite athlete.”

We then continued our election coverage with ACLU Massachusetts Executive Director and ACLY Mass. Director Carol Rose.

Then, no more flying high as Britain considers ending round-the-clock bar service at airports. Food writer Corby Kummer joined us for this and more.

Investigative reporter Jen McKim joined us to discuss her latest story: the treatment at Judge Rotenberg Education Center: the stuff of miracles, or just abuse?

CNN Anchor John King joined us for another Election Day update as the polls start rolling in.
