Lost Debate - Ep 118 | DOE Leans Lab Leak, Florida vs. AP African American Studies

Ravi, Rikki, and Joe kick things off with the latest chapter in a long-simmering debate around the origins of COVID-19, now that the Department of Energy is endorsing the once-derided “lab leak theory.” Then we head down to Florida, where a politically charged curriculum fight is playing out over a proposed AP African American Studies course.

Science In Action - Drought worsens in East Africa

The long rains of East Africa are forecast to fail again, for the third year running, precipitating a food crisis affecting millions. Science In Action explores the science of the drought, hears about new methods improving forecasts, and what is unusual about the region that makes it so vulnerable.

When we think of helium, for many of us balloons and squeaky voices come to mind. But the noble gas is critical for many aspects of modern life – and we’re facing a global shortage. Dr Annie Cheng and her colleagues at the University of Oxford are attempting to solve this by creating a model that has the potential to locate previously untapped reservoirs.

This Machine Kills - 236. Butterflies on History’s Collage (ft. Malcolm Harris)

We are joined by Malcolm Harris—author of Palo Alto: A History of California, Capitalism, and the World—to discuss his magisterial book on how a hellmouth in Northern California has, for the last two hundred years, been a vortex of power for capital. We discuss some of the lesser known people and products of Palo Alto—like Herbet Hoover and William Shockley—that have had very important impacts (for worse and worse) on the direction of modern society, but have largely been looked back on in very myopic ways. We only scratch the surface of the amazingly detailed histories, social maps, and historical materialist analysis that Malcolm digs up in his book.

Bad Faith - Episode 256 – Student Dêbt-à-Dêbt (w/ Jed Shugerman & Persis Yu)

Subscribe to Bad Faith on Patreon to instantly unlock our full premium episode library: http://patreon.com/badfaithpodcast

This might be the best conversation unpacking this week's student debt SCOTUS oral arguments you'll hear. Fordham Law professor Jed Shugerman returns to the pod and gets some healthy pushback from Student Borrower Protection Deputy Executive Director Persis Yu. The expertise on display here is extraordinary, as the two go back and forth over the Supreme Court's likely holding with respect to Biden's student debt policy based on a close reading of the oral arguments, and whether Jed's amicus brief, referenced by Kavanaugh during oral arguments, correctly raises concerns about an over-expansion of executive power. You won't want to miss this one.

Ologies with Alie Ward - Field Trip: An Airport Full of Neuroscientists

I’m at the airport and there are hundreds of brain scientists everywhere. So I swallowed my dignity/anxiety and approached strangers about the neuroscience they do. The result is a bushel of info on cravings, sleep, consciousness, addiction, dopamine, monogamy, Ozempic, toxins in your brain and so much more with: Georgia Kirkpatrick, Isabella Montana, Dr. Marissa Co, Chancey Garrett, Noah Millman, Pique Choi, Dr. Barbara Sorg and Elizabeth Plunk. Oops, we just made a bunch of new friends. All thanks to poster tubes, a.k.a: nerdurdurs.
