  • Fact Check Sam Harris

    When did Sam Harris become so irrational that he would say Zoran Mamdani talks about Israel “every other sentence” and that politicians like him and El-Sayad will result in a catastrophe for the US? The first statement is factually incorrect, and Harris gave no reason for the second. So too, Preet thinks that the Manhattan prosecution marked the beginning of Trump’s approval starting to rise. Preet has formerly said that this means we should not impeach him in case it would bring supporters to h... more

  • Dr Fauci, a hero

    I’ve been so disturbed by Senator Rand Paul of going after Dr. Fauci for what he believes as missteps during Covid, but was unwilling to go after the President that was downplaying Covid for his own means of being re-elected. People died attending his rally.

    What scientist will be willing to step up and guide us during a health emergency after this betrayal by our leaders? Shame on Rand Paul & the rest of congress, using him for fodder in order to escape blame.

  • Been listening for years

    Timely, informative, relevant, and understandable. I love the many teaching moments about the law and Constitution that come along with Preet and Joyce’s perspectives from those standpoints. Guest choices are always top notch. Topics highly momentous.

  • John O’Malley

    Brought me to tears!

    Stay Tuned has long been one of my favorite podcasts. Preet and Joyce are a treat to listen to, their well-informed commentaries often sprinkled with much needed good humor. But I had to write about a recent episode that for the first time brought me to actual tears: Preet’s remembrance of John O’Malley. What an inspirational life John had! Preet’s words were heartfelt and a fitting tribute. As long as there are people like John O’Malley, there is hope in the world.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How Not to Let Politics Ruin Your Friendships (with Adam Grant)
Q: And so you've asked why she needed the authority to make the switch and I'll get to that in a moment.
Bharara explains that New York law allows the governor to direct the attorney general to take over specified criminal matters, which Governor Kathy Hochul used to appoint Letitia James as special prosecutor.
How Not to Let Politics Ruin Your Friendships (with Adam Grant)
Q: For some subset of my listeners, and you know who you are, when I have a guest who is not very targeted in their expertise on like the war in Iran or Congress or President Trump's corruption, what's the relevance of these issues of loneliness and friendship and connection to like what's going on in our world politically and otherwise?
Grant says people are increasingly disconnected despite constant digital access, with political divisions, declining social skills, and reliance on chatbots contributing to weakened human relationships.
Intoxication & Consent in the Cornell Rape Investigation (with Mimi Rocah)
Q: Does the civil lawsuit make prosecution more difficult because so many different things are muddying the waters?
Rocah says it makes the situation much more complicated. The public civil case and statements from people on both sides have put conflicting information into circulation, complicating parallel proceedings and potentially affecting both a criminal investigation and the civil suit.
Intoxication & Consent in the Cornell Rape Investigation (with Mimi Rocah)
Q: What's your understanding of how drugs and alcohol factor into consent, culpability, and guilt?
Rocah says New York courts treat involuntary intoxication as preventing consent, while voluntary intoxication does not automatically do so. It can make prosecution harder, but investigators must still examine whether the person's words or actions showed a lack of consent and investigate relevant witnesses and evidence.
Revisiting Do Plants Think, and Other Mysteries (with Michael Pollan)
Q: How can plants do all that without brains?
Pollan describes bioelectric fields as one possible way plants coordinate information and respond to their surroundings, and notes that these fields may help explain memory and other functions in simple organisms.
