BPR Full Show 7/6: Hot Dogs and Pickles
We started the show with competitive eating. Is there anything more American? Is Joey Chestnut an American hero? We took your calls and texts. 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. We ended the show hearing from listeners about their favorite, most cherished and protected recipes. -
