We kick this one off by testing out Ric Flair's mushroom-powered energy drink, and talking about the death of Hulk Hogan. We also talk about an American man who is so deeply homophobic that he moved to Russia. To the surprise of no one, he was immediately sent to the frontlines of the war on Ukraine.

WSJ Tech News Briefing - Will Trump’s Chip Tariffs Do What He Thinks They Will?
President Trump has proposed sweeping tariffs on chips, while offering an exemption: companies that invest in manufacturing in the U.S. won’t have to pay. It’s an attempt to incentivize more chip production in the U.S., but WSJ Heard on the Street writer Asa Fitch notes that key chip-making companies already have invested in U.S. factories. Plus, Disney is in a difficult bind when it comes to AI. The WSJ’s Jessica Toonkel takes us inside the company’s thinking. Peter Champelli hosts.

The Indicator from Planet Money - The arduous system for getting aid into Gaza
Insulin needles. Sleeping bags. Nutella. These are items Arwa Damon’s charity — International Network for Aid, Relief and Assistance — has tried to send to Gaza and Israel has rejected. It’s a glimpse into the harsh reality of a humanitarian crisis with no end in sight. Today on the show, we talk to Damon about the economics of running a humanitarian nonprofit and what’s stopping more aid from reaching Gaza.

The birth of the twins was seen as reckless and unethical by the scientific community. That’s because, among other things, the CRISPR gene-editing technique Jiankui used was so new. NPR science correspondent Rob Stein has been following the controversial world of gene-editing and human reproduction, including some companies’ recent quests to push gene-editing technology forward.

Audio Mises Wire - The Meaning of Coercion in Hayekian Philosophy
How do we define liberty? Hayek saw it as the absence of most (but not all) coercion, but that depends upon how one defines “coercion.” Murray Rothbard believed that Hayek was too willing to accept forms of coercion that were anti-freedom.
