August 27, 2026
First, it's another round of the Glitch Report, with misinformation researcher Joan Donovan. Today she’s joined by tech reporter and CNN contributor Jacob Ward for analysis of the $17.1 billion dollar Meta settlement over social media addiction.
Then, MIT economist Jon Gruber joins with Nathaniel Hendren, founder and co-director of the group Policy Impacts. They’ll talk about what makes effective government policy, and why policy makers are so quick to get in their own way.
Lastly, it's National Peach Day today. We’re celebrating with Dan Souza from America’s Test Kitchen, who'll teach Edgar his not-yet-patented "Rubik’s Technique" for perfect slicing.
