About this episode
Mike talks with Slate's Dahlia Lithwick about today's Supreme Court decision allowing explicitly Christian prayers in public meetings. Radiolab's Jad Abumrad then turns the tables and interviews Mike about how he came to host his own show. And finally, we end with The Spiel, Mike's daily take on…something. Today's Spiel is about the promise of living forever, thanks to new insights from rat blood. Get notified as soon as The Gist posts each weekday: http://www.slate.com/gistemail.
