Summary

This week, the gang speaks with author and former U.S. Department of State consular officer Josef Burton about the tendency for liberal institutions to find themselves ordered to carry out illiberal practices—whether it’s Trump’s Muslim ban, the UK’s barge housing, or any other recent story in which we simply cannot believe that we’re obligated to do an immoral thing, for the state. We also talk about a recent news story regarding Russian air traffic safety, and a startup that shifts into dark mode when it can commercialise its ‘harmless’ product.

0:40.8	Mr. Ripley about Riley's endless Mediterranean holidays, whether he is getting talented
0:46.5	Mr. Ripleyed or whether he is talented Mr. Ripley-I think he is talent.
0:50.2	Because he's the least posh person on all of those holidays, which isn't to say that Riley
