Will SCOTUS Join the GOP War on Mail-in Ballots?

Adam Smith In The Age of The “Epstein Class” - ft. MP Jesse Norman

As we approach the 250th anniversary of Adam Smith's “Wealth of Nations" this March, his theories on competition and the invisible hand remain part of the bedrock of modern economics. But, have we undermined those theories in our economy today? Widespread public anger suggests there is a growing belief that our current economic system is fundamentally rigged by those at the top. In many instances, backroom access and elite networking appear to be driving who becomes wealthy and successful instead of meritocratic competition. What would the father of economics think about today's crony capitalism, and what would he make of the so-called "Epstein class"? In this episode, we are joined by British Member of Parliament and author of “Adam Smith: Father of Economics” Jesse Norman. He argues that people often forget Smith deeply distrusted concentrated power, highlighting that Smith was heavily critical of wealth generated from insider knowledge or collusion. Smith condemned these practices precisely because they destroy the genuine competition required for free markets to actually benefit society. Applying this historical lens to current events, co-host Luigi Zingales provocatively asks if the so-called “Epstein Class” embody Adam Smith’s worst fears, coordinating favors to bypass free market competition. Co-host Bethany McLeans debates whether we should call it a class, or if fixating on Epstein is a distraction from the broader systemic corruption threatening capitalism today.

How Algorithms Manipulate What We See — And Who Really Controls the Truth

Tara sits down with Imran Ahmed, founder of the Center for Countering Digital Hate, for a live panel at South by Southwest on who owns the truth in an algorithmic world. They discuss how algorithms have become outrage machines, why independent journalism is both empowered and threatened by platforms, and how bad actors — from neo-Nazis to algorithm candidates — have weaponized social media. Imran reveals how Mark Zuckerberg dialed down Facebook's negativity algorithm on January 6th and turned it back up the next day, why TikTok serves self-harm content to 13-year-old girls within minutes, and why he believes we may be witnessing the slow erosion of democracy itself. Plus: Tara shares her journey from Jersey girl to White House correspondent to independent media entrepreneur, and what it's really like to be beholden to the algorithm.

To discuss the unfolding conflict in the Middle East, and Britain's response, Pippa is joined by Labour peer, Lord West, a former First Sea Lord and Security Minister, and former Conservative MP, Tobias Ellwood, who also served as a minister in the Foreign Office and MoD.

Lord Daniel Finkelstein OBE

Not content with attempting to collect all 650 sitting MPs (Current score: three) we have a new task... collecting all of the sitting peers in the House of Lords, and as of this episode we're on the board with one... the Conservative peer Lord Daniel (Danny to his friends) Finkelstein OBE. Not only have we bagged our first 'Lord' but Danny is also the first Conservative guest on the podcast. This really is an groundbreaking episode. All after we helped get an MP elected last time (polls had it as a two way fight before our interview, landslide result after it... we can't argue with that). So enjoy this House of Lords' special. What should we conquer next...? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A Court of Drugs and Guns

Kate, Leah, and Melissa break down the oral arguments in United States v. Hemani, a Second Amendment case which challenges a law prohibiting “unlawful users” of controlled substances from possessing a firearm. Then, they cover two truly heinous shadow docket rulings–a case out of New York where SCOTUS’s conservatives seem to have found an impermissible racial gerrymander they believe in, and another on the outing of transgender children–before speaking with California Attorney General Rob Bonta about standing up to the Trump administration on issues like tariffs, federal law enforcement overreach, and antitrust. They also pour one out for Krispy Gnome’s (née Kristi Noem) generationally awful tenure at the Department of Homeland Security. This episode was recorded live at the Herbst Theatre in San Francisco.

Maas books; Melissa’s upcoming book (link below) Melissa: [REDACTED] Preorder Melissa’s book, The U.S. Constitution: A Comprehensive and Annotated Guide for the Modern ReaderBuy Leah's book, Lawless: How the Supreme Court Runs on Conservative Grievance, Fringe Theories, and Bad VibesFollow us on Instagram, Threads, and Bluesky
