Let's do it live.

Hello and welcome to the conundrums edition. we are live before a huge crowd at the 92nd Street

Y Manhattan

It's a crowd that's a buzz. I saw philosophers and theologians, Nobel Prize winners, MacArthur

geniuses. The Dalai Lama himself is here.

Oprah on one side, Thomas Alva Edison on the other.

They have all come, you've all come to hear us discuss and cogitate and contemplate and consider some of the most important

questions of our time. Like, is it okay to put your trash in someone else's trash can. If you had to live in a store for the rest of your life,

which store would it be? If food had feelings, would it want to be eaten or not want to be eaten?

I am David Platts of Citicast and joining me on the conundrum stage on my left from the New York Times and Yale University Law School.

Did you all see the story that 80% of grades at Yale are A's? And I one, was not surprised because they're being taught by Emily,

so they're definitely going to get A's.

All earned.

Please give it up for the woman who does not need a billionaire benefactor to reshape American law, Emily Bazelon.

We have absence tonight, as I've already told you guys, but listeners at home.

John has been waylaid by a Hunter-Biden indictment, and he was on his way to the show he's on his way here and he

was pulled back by his CBS bosses so he's not here hopefully he might be able to

join us later we don't know yet that is okay yes and well you might

booo yes also Stephen Colbert was going to join us but his appendix

ruptured I don't know what's going on over at CBS something something is

happening Stephen is recuperating when we find out a couple of days ago

that Stephen couldn't join us we thought well who was as funny and wise and humane as Stephen
