Here's a more mainstream leftist podcast today. Bombshell conspiracy that the guy who allegedly shot Kirk was framed. I didn't watch the video, but I got the point from the title and the comments. Oh boy. This is a mainstream pundit, like the left's Ben Shapiro.
BOMBSHELL VIDEO CLAIMS CHARLIE KIRK SHOT FROM BEHIND, NOT BY ROBINSON

Peter Attia interview from back in 2021 with the journalist who really dove into the Andrew Wakefield hoax and the origins of the ‘vaccines cause autism’ memetic complex.
He follows the histories of the players involved (Wakefield originally sought out to show measles caused IBD), what they did, what they fabricated, and how they were able to have their initial success.

Bloomberg’s Odd Lots podcast had two great episodes in a row on Venezuela.
Yesterday was on the oil situation, today was on the debt situation. Today’s was far more interesting than I expected. It was more of a history lesson than a wonky bond podcast. Many of you would enjoy it. Probably more than the oil one.

Latest Making Sense podcast with Sam Harris has John McWhorter as a guest. They talk about the state of woke, where it’s receded and where it remains.
From the show notes:
Sam Harris speaks with John McWhorter about language, ideology, and moral certainty. They discuss the rise and persistence of "wokeness" and DEI, the legacy of George Floyd's death, the role of social media in amplifying moral panic, how identity shapes perceptions of Israel-Palestine, the linguistics of Donald Trump, the rise of casual speech, conspiracy thinking, positions McWhorter has reconsidered, and other topics.

I listened to the free part. It's fine. I've clocked WcWhorter though, which is not as disrespectful as it sounds. It's just that he rarely says anything that particularly interests me anymore. Not because he's uninteresting, but because he was interesting enough that I got my fill through his books and his podcast appearances, mostly on Glenn Loury's show.

Coleman Hughes continues to surprise and impress though. I'm consistently enjoying his stuff.
Still haven't really gotten back to Glenn since I read his book. I know he's getting older, and not quite at the same level as he was. I kinda feel him running the verbal routine now.
