Dr. Peter Hotez appeared on TMZ to counter Jon Stewart's comments, arguing that natural zoonotic origin is more likely than a lab leak. Hotez claims that the scientific community is under attack and that the lab leak hypothesis lacks a "smoking gun." The hosts critique his defense of Chinese laboratories and his dismissal of the lab leak theory.

The "Delta Five" protesters, arrested for blocking oil trains at a BNSF rail yard, are granted the right to use the "necessity defense" in a Seattle court. This marks the first time an American court has allowed defendants to argue that their illegal actions were necessary to prevent the greater harm of climate change. The trial features testimony from rail safety experts and climatologists regarding the threats posed by fossil fuel transportation.

Leonardo DiCaprio claimed on "Charlie Rose" that he experienced the effects of climate change firsthand while filming in Canada when the weather suddenly warmed. The hosts point out that DiCaprio likely experienced a "Chinook," a common meteorological phenomenon in the region, rather than global warming. They criticize his claim that 99% of the scientific community agrees on the imminent threat of climate change.

An investigation into the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) reveals that membership is open to anyone willing to pay a $50 fee, regardless of scientific credentials. This finding challenges the weight given to Pew Research Center surveys that compare the opinions of "scientists" (AAAS members) against the general public on issues like GMO safety.
