Hello!
We’re joined today by Matt Karp, a columnist for Harper’s, a professor of History at Princeton and one of the most intelligent and incisive writers on the left. We talk about AOC’s big night at the DNC, the somewhat moribund state of the left after Bernie’s big win in the 2020 Nevada primary, and whether the future for the left is bright or gloomy. This was a lively one and lotta good thinking from Matt here so please take a listen!
One note: apologies I think there was some street work being done towards the back end but we tried to clean it up as best as we could. Shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
thanks!

If you’ve been around long enough, and by that, I only mean a couple of years, you have probably observed the one fundamental truth about computers: they always get faster.
While games and web browning might seem faster, the average person’s computer usage doesn’t necessarily express just how much more powerful computers have become.
In particular, for several decades, supercomputers have been developed which are vastly more powerful than what is one your desk or in your pocket. Unless that is, you make comparisons over time…
Learn more about supercomputers, the evolution of computing power and how your computer stacks up to supercomputers of the past on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Barack and Michelle Obama and Doug Emhoff make the argument for Kamala Harris with a trio of pitch-perfect speeches to the delegates in Chicago. Harris accepts the nomination with a surprise live greeting broadcast from her packed rally in Milwaukee. Then, California Senator Laphonza Butler joins the show to talk about the Kamala Harris she's gotten to know over the years, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus talks to Jon and Lovett about getting involved with politics—and all those Veep comparisons.

Where should humans draw the line with gene editing? Is CRISPR the "holy grail" of science, or is editing human DNA ethical at all? Zachary and Emma speak with Kevin Davies, executive editor of The CRISPR Journal and author of "Editing Humanity." They discuss gene editing, specifically CRISPR, and its implications for mankind's future, the successes of gene editing for agriculture and treating sickle cell disease, and Chinese biophysicist He Jiankui's unlawful meddling in the DNA of three embryos, now kids living in China with unknown health effects.
What Could Go Right? is produced by The Progress Network and The Podglomerate.
