A Titan(ic) Tragedy in the Deep Seas, SCOTUS: We Have a Problem, Germany Ramps Up Military Spending & COVID Patient Zero Identified?

In this episode, Alex starts by going through his fascination over the public fascination of the Titan submersible  tragedy. He goes through the tragedy, the ironies of the catastrophy, and why it appears like this fiasco could have been prevented. Next, Alex talks about new reports that discuss how Germany is going to increase its military spending to meet NATO’s goal of 2% of GDP. It seems like Germany is changing due to rising security threats from the War in Ukraine and worries towards China. Alex then discusses a new report that (potentially) names three scientists from the Wuhan Insitute of Virology that could be patient zeroes for getting COVID-19. If these reports are true, this could prove that the virus came from a lab and not nature; however, Alex is sceptical. Finally, new revelations from ProPublica shine a light on more ethical violations in the Supreme Court. This time, these allegations involve Justice Samuel Alito taking trips to Alaska with a billionaire named Paul Singer. Alex worries that the court truly has a legitimacy crisis and Justice Roberts must do something about it.
