## About this episode

President Joe Biden sparked international alarm during a marathon press conference by suggesting a minor incursion by Russia into Ukraine might result in a fractured Western response. The remark stunned officials in Kyiv as White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki simultaneously warned of a Russian false flag operation involving pre-positioned operatives. This diplomatic friction coincides with new reports from Microsoft and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan regarding destructive malware targeting Ukrainian government networks.

Domestic policy shifts rapidly as Starbucks rescinds its vaccine mandate for 200,000 employees following a Supreme Court ruling, while Prime Minister Boris Johnson ends Plan B restrictions in England. In the United States, the federal launch of COVIDtests.gov faced immediate technical glitches for apartment residents, and Republican lawmakers led by Senator Ted Cruz demanded the FDA explain why it bypassed advisory committees for teen boosters. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal on the Ninth Circuit Boise ruling, effectively protecting the right of homeless individuals to camp on public property when shelter beds are unavailable. In Los Angeles, organized theft rings are successfully breaching international shipping containers on stationary trains despite heavy-duty security measures.

John C. Dvorak recounts a 1980s OS/2 apology that saved his career while Adam Curry details his historical battle with Wikipedia editors over the definition of podcasting. The show honors the knighting of Sir Ed and explores the plague doctor imagery appearing in modern Podcasting 2.0 apps. A viral speech from an Illinois student and a 3D-printed Habitat for Humanity house in Virginia round out the global status report.

### 9. Insurance Coverage Disputes for At-Home COVID Tests (18:18–21:54)

A debate arises regarding whether private insurance companies or taxpayers are funding the distribution of free at-home COVID-19 tests. While some reports suggest insurance companies must cover eight tests per month per person, the federal website does not require insurance information for the initial four-test rollout. The hosts argue over the accuracy of media reporting on the funding mechanism.

### 11. Israeli Study on Fourth Dose Effectiveness and Moderna Combo Shot (24:34–26:15)

Scientists in Israel reported that a fourth dose of the COVID-19 vaccine increases antibody levels but may not be sufficient to prevent breakthrough infections from the Omicron variant. Meanwhile, Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel announced the company is developing a single annual booster shot that combines vaccines for both COVID-19 and the seasonal flu.

The Biden administration awarded Pfizer a $2 billion contract modification for 300 million additional vaccine doses intended for international donation to low-income countries.

The French Parliament voted to implement a strict vaccine pass law, requiring proof of vaccination for entry into restaurants, cinemas, and long-distance trains. Attorney Dianne Protat and several senators challenged the bill in the Constitutional Council, arguing it forces civilians to act as police officers.

The hosts analyze a recent video by Dilbert creator Scott Adams, debating whether his admission of being "wrong" about vaccine data was sincere or a sarcastic psychological play.

The Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal of a Ninth Circuit ruling that prevents cities from ticketing homeless individuals for sleeping in public if no shelter beds are available.

### 27. Technical Analysis of Aircraft Altimeter Interference and 5G (1:10:57–1:15:58)

The hosts provide a technical breakdown of why Boeing aircraft are particularly susceptible to 5G interference due to their fuselage composition and older altimeter designs. They argue the conflict is primarily a financial dispute over who pays for equipment upgrades. Furthermore, they suggest 5G's millimeter-wave signals could cause broader interference issues for future autonomous vehicle sensors.

### 33. Biden Questions Legitimacy of 2022 Elections Without Reforms (1:30:52–1:34:25)

President Biden suggested that the results of the 2022 midterm elections could be "illegitimate" if Democratic voting reforms are not passed.
