  <description>&lt;p&gt;Fingers is flying solo this week as Sarah Smith takes the week off, and he’s got plenty to unload on. This episode covers California’s painfully slow primary vote count, the May jobs report, inflation pressure from the Iran war, and Trump’s search for an off-ramp.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Fingers also gets into ESPN layoffs, media consolidation, the changing way people watch sports, and why late-night TV’s meltdown over Stephen Colbert says more about the industry than it does about CBS. Plus, bad customer service, disappearing work ethic, an NBA Finals selfie stunt, Byron Allen taking over CBS late night, and the 2027 Masters ticket lottery.&lt;/p&gt;
