Non sports media edition, because a) I’m morbidly captivated by the Healthcare CEO assassination fallout and b) Any excuse to host Sarah Haider is a good one.

Beyond being intelligent and brave, Sarah has some personally informed thoughts about ayahuasca, a topic of the moment given certain rumors about the CEO killer. Conversation includes but is not limited to…

* High status people celebrating the murder of CEO Brian Thompson?

* It’s underrated how frequently high functioning people lose their minds

* Did ayahuasca compel Sarah to quit her own podcast?

* If ayahuasca kills motivation, then why did Sarah do it?

* Does living under threat of assassination, as Sarah might, inform perspective?

* Are we completely honest in our public transmissions?

* Are we more honest in real life or as writers/podcasters?

* Why don’t professors, whose system saddles young people in debt, see themselves as oppressors?

* What do we think of the politically minded tech libertarian types?
