Sam and Ryan talk about seams in TypeScript programs where lies can sneak in. They chat about how API calls, form inputs, and URLs all relate to this problem, the similarity between drifting types and service mocks in testing, zod, and how type-safe languages like Elm eliminate this problem entirely.
