Greg Olear is joined by Aja Raden, author of “The Truth About Lies” and “Stoned,” to talk about “Nothing Lasts Forever,” the new documentary about the diamond industry in which she appears. They also discuss “peak crazy,” the banking crisis, Elon Musk and the future of Twitter, the protests in Israel, the benefits of the two-party system, fascism, incels, and the difference between silicon and diamonds when making computer chips. Plus: a little dance number.
