We started the show with competitive eating. Is there anything more American? Is Joey Chestnut an American hero? We took your calls and texts. Bill McKibben returned for a climate check-in to discuss his latest pieces for the New Yorker magazine and his blog the Crucial Years. Andrea Cabral reflected on the SCOTUS student loan decision, and a federal judge’s ruling on Biden’s contact with social media companies … plus, firework seizures across Mass. and cocaine in the White House. Brenden Quigley & Derrick Albertelli are two members of the Boston Typewriter Orchestra. They joined in Studio 3 to talk about their craft and teach 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. He joined to discuss his work. Jon Gruber has a whole host of thoughts on the Ozempic phenomenon, including what it tells us about our instincts and motivations from his perspective as a microeconomist. We started with hot dogs...we ended with pickles. Grillo's is in a lawsuit over their family recipe. We asked listeners to weigh-in on keeping secret recipes, and shared pickling pointers.
