The Intelligence from The Economist - Bibi got back: Israel’s election
Binyamin Netanyahu looks set to win a fifth term as prime minister. How will his policies affect negotiations about some of the most contested land on Earth? Meanwhile in space, Israel’s Beresheet probe is set to land on the Moon—but the recent spate of lunar landings is more about national flag-planting than it is about science. And, how will economies adjust as the old increasingly outnumber the young?

What Next - What Next | Daily News and Analysis – Bernie Hasn’t Really Changed
Bernie went from virtual unknown in the 2016 election to front-runner with the highest campaign contributions in the first quarter of the 2020 race. And while some things have changed since he last ran four years ago, a lot about his campaign looks pretty much the same. Do voters appreciate someone who sticks to the issues? Or will Bernie’s resistance to getting personal hurt him this time around?
Guest: Slate politics writer, Jim Newell
Podcast production by Mary Wilson, Jayson De Leon, and Anna Martin.

Philosophers In Space - 0G52: Infinity Wars and Overpopulation
Lemme just get my witty banter beard on:
Hey kids, do you like violence? Want to see Murtle the turtle stick needles in Dr. Strange's eyelids?
Sorry, not current enough pop culture reference? How bout this?
What's big, purple, has a jewelry fetish, and makes some really sound points about overpopulation? That's right! A Kardashian Oompa loompa.
Too many references mashed together? Okay, how bout this:
::hour long battle scene, I timed it::
Okay okay, I'm not gonna give it all away for free, cause we're going all out with TWO pieces of Infinity Wars content. For those who want more philosophy and less snark, we have this episode where spend 90% of the time on the tragedy of the commons and how it applies to overpopulation. THEN, we're going to soon have NASA 3 come out, where we spend almost as long as one whole battle scene arguing about how awesome this movie is. If you were fans of the battle of Hamilton, you'll want in on this.

The Gist - Misquoter in Chief
On The Gist, Trump’s latest campaign video is wild.
In the interview, Scotland’s Daniel Sloss churns out comedy specials at an almost alarming rate, completing his tenth at age 28. He’s here to talk about circumcision, Brexit, and why the left is doomed to eternally shoot itself in the foot. Sloss will be back in the United States in June of 2019, and his specials "Dark" & "Jigsaw” are on Netflix.
In the Spiel, instant replay is a contentious part of refereeing, particularly at a championship.
