Recent research suggests that the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, commonly found in cat feces, may be linked to increased aggression, impulsiveness, and schizophrenia in humans. The parasite is estimated to infect one-third of the global population. The discussion posits that the rise of house cats since the 1920s has led to widespread behavioral shifts, jokingly citing Howard Stern as a potential victim of the "Toxo Complex."

### Martin Shkreli, Daraprim Price Hike, and Hillary's Reaction

- **Episode:** [759: Geopolitical Chernobyl](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/759-geopolitical-chernobyl.md)
- **Published:** 2015-09-24
- **Time:** 2:07:42–2:15:53
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/759-geopolitical-chernobyl/chapter/martin-shkreli-daraprim-price-hike-and-hillary-s-reaction.md

Hedge fund manager Martin Shkreli faced intense backlash for raising the price of the drug Daraprim by 5,000%, a move Hillary Clinton quickly labeled "price gouging." Shkreli defended the increase on Bloomberg, arguing that the revenue would fund research for better treatments for Toxoplasmosis. The hosts debate whether the controversy was a "setup scam" to provide Clinton with a populist campaign issue, though they find Shkreli's explanation somewhat reasonable.
