Hi. Allison Raskin (@AllisonRaskin) joins Cody Johnston to talk about the COVID-19 "Lab Leak Theory," Samuel Alito's sudden concern about fairness in government policy, and Eli Lilly lowering the cost of insulin possibly because of Elon Musk's screw-up. (Katy will be back next week!)

He's not Tesla, he's not Edison, he's JP Morgan.

Trulicity and Ozempic and other of the diet drugs that also treat diabetes and heart issues are some of the medications that sell for outrageous prices. They are actually having stocking issues because so many people are using them just for losing weight.

For the record, you may know the racoon dog better as a tanuki, which the Japanese have a lot of colorful folklore about. Notably, they're said to be shapeshifters, and also have ridiculously enormous testicles. The former detail is why Mario's tanooki suit turns him into a statue. Whether or not it gives him enormous balls is something you'd have to ask Nintendo.

I think it should more be "Elon isn't Tesla, and he isn't Edison. He's P.T. Barnum."

Happy to see a cross-over episode of some of my favorite podcasts. Allison is great!

The fact we haven't forced a "Ask why we pay for medicine we funded the fidnig of" day (Or something else to that effect, like I'm thinking of the Eli Lily thing but go crazy)makes me sad. We're powerful, we could do it. I believe in us.

The FBI and DOE "theories" are different and mutually exclusive. FBI says it was engineered (no evidence but research is done in labs) and DOE says it was zoonotic but with a lab employee (no evidence but the lab works with viruses). There isn't a coherent "lab leak" theory. It's just a bunch of speculation from the motivated reasoning of "how can this lab be blamed".

I'm fascinated that none of you grew up playing Super Mario Bros. 3 enough to know that a raccoon dog is a tanuki.
