The Chancery Daily is an independent, daily newsletter that covers the Delaware Court of Chancery, the place where Twitter is trying to force Elon Musk to buy it. As this case winds its way through the court's legal process, an editor from The Chancery Daily joins us to break down where the case stands, whether Musk's arguments are working, how Delaware Chancellor Kathaleen McCormick is approaching the case, and what the likely result is. Give this episode a listen and you'll be able to follow the case with far more context than you'd get through just the headlines.
Headlines From The Times - How illegal cannabis smoked California
California voters legalized cannabis in 2016, and one of the issues that was supposed to be solved was the violence and environmental wreckage associated with the drug’s illegal trade. But that hasn’t happened.
Inside California’s famed “Emerald Triangle,” a region north of San Francisco known for its weed, there’s an estimated 5,000 to 10,000 illegal cannabis farms alone. The under-the-radar cultivation is messing with once-peaceful communities. Today, we get into this issue. Read the full transcript here.
Host: Gustavo Arellano
Guests: L.A. Times investigative reporter Paige St. John

Time To Say Goodbye - Fantasies of progress on K-TV with Jenny Wang Medina
Hello from Seoul (both real and fictional)!
This week, we welcome our friend and K-drama expert Jenny Wang Medina back to the pod to discuss the new Netflix hit “Extraordinary Attorney Woo.”
The legal-procedural K-drama follows an autistic attorney, Woo Young-woo, who joins the ranks of a high-powered law firm and quickly proves herself invaluable. It’s wholesome, marginally sea-themed, and set in a fantasy playground of the professional sphere.
We discuss the hot-button issues in Korea that form the backdrop of the show, like children’s rights, Buddhism versus Christianity, North Korean defectors, and eminent domain, just to name a few. We reflect on the rise of multiculturalism and minority rights in Korean society, TV, and film, which has led to the increased visibility of people with disabilities. Woo has also sparked a specific discourse around the portrayal of its autistic protagonist. Will the show also inspire a generation of women lawyers to move to Korea, expecting a feminist haven, or convince Korean parents to ease up on their kids’ time at hagwons? Only time will tell.
If you plan to watch the series, we should warn you that Jay drops a couple of pretty extreme spoilers towards the end of the ep!
Later this week, we’ll be releasing a bonus recording of our book club with Lisa Hsiao Chen, author of “Activities of Daily Living,” for paid subscribers. We’ve also been using our TTSG Discord to plan subscriber meet-ups with Tammy in Seoul. If you’d like to join in, subscribe via Patreon or Substack.

The Intelligence from The Economist - Cautiousness in the Caucasus: Azerbaijan and Armenia clash
A conflict smouldering since a war in 2020 has again caught alight; Azerbaijan may feel emboldened by a distracted Russia and its own energy prospects. Gulf countries are swimming in piles of unexpected, oil-derived cash: we ask whether they will sock it away or splurge on citizens and pet projects. And why many Lebanese couples are choosing to wed online.

The Best One Yet - 🚴♀️ “eBikes are the new Pickleball” — Electric Bikes’ subsidy moment. Starbucks’ hacienda loyalty. Kellogg’s inflated water cereal.
Yes, you’re noticing more electric bikes on the streets — Because e-bikes just beat road bikes. Starbucks just unveiled the future of loyalty at its annual investor day and here’s the strategy: Send you to a hacienda in Costa Rica to sip on the good stuff. And Kellogg just unveiled a cereal that doesn’t take milk, it takes water — And that “water cereal” explains why stocks just had their worst day in 2 years.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Berlin Airlift
On June 24, 1948, the Soviet Union placed a blockade on Berlin's American, British, and French-occupied zones.
No food, fuel, or supplies could enter the area known as West Berlin.
Many people thought that either the allies would have to capitulate or engage in an armed conflict. However, the Americans and British eventually figured out another way around the blockade.
Learn more about the Berlin Airlift and how it shaped post-war Europe on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
