About this episode

Ugandan marathon runner and Paris Olympian Rebecca Cheptegei dies after being set on fire in a weekend attack. A 14-year-old Georgia high school student kills four and injures nine in campus shooting. Canada has been rejecting visa applications and turning away visitors in a border crackdown. Volkswagen’s announcement that the car maker is mulling German factory closures for the first time in its history could prove to be a risky move. And OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever’s new startup pledges to focus on safe AI and has already raised $1 billion.
