Hi. It's been an interesting day from the standpoint of news. Katy, Cody, and Jonathan discuss the continuing Kilmar Ábrego García saga, the U.S. seizure of a Venezuelan oil tanker, Paramount's attempted hostile takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery, and Sean Duffy's insistence that you stop wearing pajamas to the airport.


We recorded this shortly before Kilmar Ábrego García was released from ICE custody.

Hi. Are we at war with Venezuela yet? Because from our vantage point (several weeks ago) it sure looks like the Trump administration wants to do a war. Let's look at those "drug boats," the administration's lack of any legal justification for attacking them, and why inflicting violence abroad is a harbinger of violence to come at home.

Hi. Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s MAHA movement pretends to be about reducing chronic illnesses, but in reality, it's anti-science, will contribute to increases in disease and death, and is, at best, eugenics-adjacent.

Hi. Today we're looking at modern conveniences that have a higher cost than we'd like to admit. Amazon, Netflix, Airbnb, Doordash – all require exploiting labor, screwing over customers, and making parts of our society just a little bit worse. Is there a better way?
