## About this episode

The disappearance of EgyptAir Flight 804 has triggered a wave of media speculation, with outlets like CNN relying on unverified ADS-B data to suggest violent maneuvers before the aircraft vanished. While news cycles lean toward terrorism, evidence of electronic failure or catastrophic disintegration at flight level remains a viable alternative. This tragedy unfolds as the TSA faces a national staffing crisis, leaving 5,000 fewer screeners than three years ago and forcing passengers to sleep on cots in major airports.

Chaos at the Nevada Democratic Convention resulted in death threats against State Party Chair Roberta Lange after 64 Bernie Sanders delegates were denied status. In Kentucky, a Fayette County machine glitch delayed results that ultimately favored Hillary Clinton, fueling concerns of establishment interference. Meanwhile, financial analyst Charles Ortell and Judge Andrew Napolitano highlight FBI investigations into the Clinton Foundation for alleged solicitation fraud. In foreign policy, Donald Trump signaled a willingness to negotiate directly with Kim Jong-un, while the U.S. Senate passed a bill allowing 9/11 families to sue Saudi Arabia despite threats of a $750 billion asset sell-off.

Megyn Kelly and Ivanka Trump navigate high-stakes media appearances to manage the Trump campaign's image, while Whoopi Goldberg defends Clinton’s private email server on The View. Max Verstappen secures a historic Formula One victory for Red Bull Racing, providing a brief distraction for the Netherlands. This episode features artwork by Neil Campbell and a knighting ceremony for Tony Marengo.

### 1. Dvorak's Law of Economic Depression, Lipstick Effect Correlation (0:00–3:17)

The hosts discuss a Medline study that provides an experimental demonstration of the "lipstick effect," where women's spending on beauty products increases during economic downturns despite overall declines in consumer spending. This phenomenon is linked to Dvorak's Law of Economic Depression, which posits that during recessions, certain services become higher quality and more affordable. The research suggests this behavior is rooted in primal mating psychology and the desire to attract mates with resources during lean times.

Recent heavy rainfall in Austin, Houston, and Corpus Christi has led to flood alerts across Texas. Lake Travis has reached full capacity for the first time in over a decade, necessitating water drainage into Lake Austin to prevent overflow. Despite the abundance of water, local authorities maintain level two water restrictions, which is characterized as a price-gouging tactic.

The disappearance of EgyptAir Flight 804 is analyzed following reports of the aircraft swerving violently before vanishing. Criticism is directed at CNN and other news outlets for relying on ADS-B data from FlightTracker24, which may reflect electronic failure rather than actual flight maneuvers.

Air travelers across the United States are facing extreme wait times at security checkpoints, leading to missed flights and passengers sleeping on cots.

### 6. Hillary Clinton Speaking Fees, Goldman Sachs Transcripts (19:26–21:52)

New financial records reveal that Hillary and Bill Clinton earned millions in speaking fees during 2015, with Hillary raking in $1.5 million for six speeches. A report from a source at Goldman Sachs suggests these "speeches" were actually brief 15-minute Q&A sessions in informal settings. The lack of transcripts and the high pay for minimal effort lead to allegations that these payments function as political bribes.

Democratic leaders including Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Barbara Boxer criticize the Sanders campaign for "fanning the flames" of discontent.

### 8. Political Dirty Tricks, Roger Stone, Watergate Tactics (26:29–32:13)

The unrest within the Democratic Party is theorized to be an orchestration by Republican "dirty tricksters" like Roger Stone to exacerbate internal divisions. This strategy mirrors Watergate-era tactics used by figures such as Dick Tuck and Donald Segretti to sabotage political opponents. Reports of gunshots fired into a Sanders campaign office in Nevada are cited as evidence of high-end "mob activity" influencing the election cycle.

### 9. Kentucky Primary Voting Glitches, Fayette County Results (32:15–34:52)

During the Kentucky primary, a "machine counting problem" in Fayette County caused a delay in reporting. Once the glitch was resolved, a large jump in votes erased Bernie Sanders' narrow lead, handing the advantage to Hillary Clinton. The incident fuels skepticism regarding the reliability of electronic voting machines and the influence of establishment interests in primary outcomes.

Donald Trump has signaled a major shift in U.S. foreign policy by stating he would be willing to speak directly with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un.

The media is accused of stripping context from Donald Trump's statements, specifically regarding his proposed "Muslim ban," which he later described as a "suggestion."

New York City has begun aerial spraying of larvicide to combat mosquitoes linked to the Zika virus.

The push for driverless trucks is expected to face significant opposition from the Teamsters union and state-level regulatory hurdles.

The "obsession" with roboticizing service jobs, such as using iPads in restaurants, is criticized for destroying entry-level employment.

The United States is moving to arm the provisional government in Libya, potentially bypassing a UN arms embargo.

### 42. North Carolina Bill, Minimum Wage Provision (2:36:09–2:39:10)

### 43. Robin Wright, House of Cards Pay Dispute (2:39:10–2:45:05)

Actress Robin Wright publicly negotiated a pay raise for her role in "House of Cards" by threatening to go public with pay discrepancies between her and co-star Kevin Spacey. While framed as an equal pay victory, the discussion notes that Spacey was an executive producer and that the industry is already strictly regulated by the SAG-AFTRA union. The move is seen as a PR stunt aligned with Hillary Clinton's campaign themes.
