The Best One Yet - 🐔 “Nuggets 4 life” — KFC’s Window of Loyalty. Air Conditioner’s duct tape. Netflix’s stoooooop.

KFC is launching their first chicken nugget in their 92 year history — because the window for their chicken loyalty is closing fast. With extreme heat ravaging Europe, people are turning to climate change duct tape: Air Conditioners. And Netflix’s shrinkage continued for a second-straight quarter, so it should initiate Code Red: Make Fewer Shows.  $YUM $NFLX $CARR Follow The Best One Yet on Instagram, Twitter, and Tiktok: @tboypod And now watch us on Youtube Want a Shoutout on the pod?

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Tragic Flight of Vladimir Komarov and Soyuz 1

Traveling to space is an inherently dangerous thing to do. In the first years of the space race, both the Soviet Union and the United States were fortunate in that none of their missions resulted in a loss of life. 

However, 1967 saw that luck run out for both countries. NASA saw the death of three astronauts in Apollo 1, and the Soviets lost their first cosmonaut during the Soyuz 1 mission. 

The Soyuz 1 mission is one that few people are aware of today, and it changed the entire course of the space race.

Learn more about Vladimir Komarov and the fateful mission of Soyuz 1 on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NBN Book of the Day - Alice Crary and Lori Gruen, “Animal Crisis: A New Critical Theory” (Polity, 2022)

As we lose more individual animals and entire species to catastrophic climate change, habitat destruction, toxic dumping, and other human activities, it becomes increasingly difficult to register the full scope of the crisis. In Animal Crisis: A New Critical Theory (Polity Press, 2022), Alice Crary and Lori Gruen reinvigorate the discourse of animal ethics with a critical theoretical approach that gives us new ways of thinking about what is owed to animals. By theorizing the links between human and non-human animal liberation, they offer ways of understanding why it can be so hard to see, hear, or feel the value and dignity of the animals right in front of us. Offering practices of interspecies solidarity, Crary and Gruen show us that we can transform the crisis we are in, but we must dismantle human supremacism to even connect with the need.

Sarah Tyson is an associate professor of philosophy at the University of Colorado, Denver.

Land of the Giants - Don’t Be Afraid To Break Things

If our first episode brought you into the beginning of Zuckerberg’s vision for connecting at scale, this story is about the consequences of pursuing that vision at full speed. In the 2000s, Facebook made a big bet to become a platform for developers – and all social activity across the web. It would bring us FarmVille and “Log In With Facebook.” But years later, it would lead the company into one of its biggest scandals: Cambridge Analytica.

What A Day - The Haunted Manchin

The House passed the Respect for Marriage Act on Tuesday with bipartisan support. The law would mandate that all states recognize same-sex marriage and formally repeal the Clinton-era Defense of Marriage Act, which federally outlawed same-sex marriage.

Meanwhile the White House is hoping to pass a “slimmed down” version of Biden’s domestic policy bill through Congress soon. But to do it, they need the support of West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin — the same man who dealt a huge blow to the President’s climate agenda last week.

And in headlines: the White House said that Russia plans to forcefully annex more Ukrainian territory, the Secret Service said it can’t recover agents’ deleted text messages from January 6th, and a judge fast-tracked Twitter’s lawsuit against Elon Musk.

The Daily Signal - American Dream Isn’t Dead, but It Needs Help

The American dream looms large in the nation’s psyche. Immigrants flock to our shores to make a better life for themselves, free of the chains that bound them in their countries of origin.

Native-born Americans also can achieve the American dream through hard work and determination.

But recently, many have come to view that dream as unattainable. Some view the system as broken and demand massive changes to fix it.

To Adam Brandon, president of FreedomWorks and author of the new book “America in Perspective: Defending the American Dream for the Next Generation,” that’s a huge problem for the nation’s continued survival.

“We’ve gone through incredibly challenging times, and this is part of our national history. And people forget that you go through these times,” Brandon says, adding:

What’s scary to me right now, there’s all this debate [over] do we get rid of the [Senate] filibuster? Do we do this? Do we do that? Now, these are radical changes, and in my study of history … you could actually make some changes that will knock out the stability in our system, and who knows what we are then.

Brandon joins the “The Daily Signal Podcast” to discuss the American dream and how we can bring it back from the brink.

We also cover these stories:

  • Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., pretends to be handcuffed by police during a pro-abortion protest outside the Supreme Court.
  • The Biden administration backs a bill that would codify the Supreme Court’s decisions to legalize gay and interracial marriage.
  • A New York judge drops murder charges against a bodega worker who fatally stabbed a man who came behind the counter and assaulted him
  • Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh shares his stance on abortion and the unborn while speaking at a pro-life event.
