Environmentalist Bill McKibben returned for a climate check-in, to discuss the most recent record-setting hottest days on the planet. Former public safety secretary Andrea Cabral discussed the SCOTUS student loan decision, a federal judge’s ruling on Biden’s contact with social media companies, and cocaine found in the White House. Brenden Quigley & Derrick Albertelli are two members of the Boston Typewriter Orchestra, they talked about their craft and taught J&M a thing or two about playing the typewriter. Juma Inniss is director of the for-profit group The Message, promoting media literacy and critical thinking among teens. MIT economist Jon Gruber examined the economics of the Ozempic phenomenon; what it tells us about our instincts and motivations.
