The hosts discuss decision-making and express their support for a friend while clarifying their stance against Nazism. They also tease a discussion about Elon Musk's drug use and begin an ad segment for the New York Times Audio app.
Casey is taking his newsletter Platformer off Substack, as criticism over the company’s handling of pro-Nazi content grows. Then, The Wall Street Journal spoke with witnesses who said that Elon Musk had used LSD, cocaine, ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms, worrying some directors and board members of his companies. And finally, how researchers found a new class of antibiotics with the help of an artificial intelligence algorithm used to win the board game Go.
