The Gist - Coronavirus Symptom Check
On the Gist, Alexei Navalny’s sentence.
In the Interview, it’s part two of a conversation with historian Jill Lepore about her latest book: If Then: How the Simulmatics Corporation Invented the Future. Jill discusses that with data mining and analysis there is greater potential for the demeaning of democratic processes, and why in 2021, accepting social media and twitter as a proxy for public opinion and polling could be risky. Lepore is an author, a New Yorker writer, and historian. She is also host of a podcast called The Last Archive from Pushkin.

Amarica's Constitution - Bullets (Not) Dodged, Part 3: Shocked, Shocked!
The quadrennial choice Americans make was particularly fateful in 2016, and Akhil asserts that itself this was a bullet not dodged. The unique nature of the American Presidency places enormous burdens on the office's holders, but so, too, does it ask much of the American people as they exercise the franchise. What makes a good president? What should Americans consider, and how can they frame the choice? Akhil and Andy find lessons in the early republic, and the early Akhil, for that matter. And of course, a few words about the recent occupant of the office. Should we have known what we were in for?
