Tangle

Tangle takes spring break.


Listen Later

As we head into the Easter and Passover season, with Ramadan already here, and with many colleges and organizations observing spring break in various ways, we're giving the team a few days off. We'll be back in your inbox on Tuesday, April 2nd.

In the meantime, we also know some of you re receiving Tangle for the first time today while others are new, or may want some content to consume while we're gone. To that end, we've pulled together some of our best stuff from the newsletter, YouTube channel, and podcast from the last few weeks. We also went back into the archive and resurfaced a few old articles for your perusal.


Free editions:

  • How we plan to cover the 2024 elections: A breakdown of what we are going to do (and not do) in 2024.
  • From the border of identity, politics, and medicine: In a reader essay, anonymous physician who is religious, conservative, and transgender writes about their experience watching both sides debate trans issues.
  • The Zionist case for a ceasefire: A personal op-ed where I made the case for a ceasefire in Israel. This was one of our most controversial pieces of the year so far.
  • The Tucker Carlson-Vladimir Putin interview: Our breakdown of the interview Tucker Carlson did with Vladimir Putin in Russia.
