In today's episode, we cover a rare tick-borne disease affecting Martha’s Vineyard, forcing many locals, including former chef Andrew Keenan, to adopt vegan diets due to alpha-gal syndrome. Local restaurants have adapted by offering “alpha-gal-friendly” options. In sports, the Boston Red Sox face the New York Yankees in a four-game series at Yankee Stadium, with Lucas Giolito and Luis Gil pitching. The PGA Tour undergoes potential changes led by Tiger Woods, aiming for fewer events and higher stakes. In tech news, Silicon Valley executives invest in genetic-testing services for “smarter babies,” raising ethical concerns. The U.S. labor force shrinks by 790,000 workers, impacting the tech sector as companies like Meta and Microsoft struggle to hire. In crypto, Bitcoin rises to over $114,000, Ethereum to $4,300, and XRP to $2.93. Google clarifies that its Pixel 10 Pro Fold is not completely waterproof or dustproof, with liquid damage not covered under warranty. Lastly, Roman Polanski’s film "An Officer and a Spy" returns to U.S. theaters, exploring the Dreyfus Affair with themes of justice and antisemitism.
