About the episode

Netflix removed an episode of Hasan Minhaj’s show ‘Patriot Act’ in Saudi Arabia after the country claimed that it violated its anti-cyber crime law (2:08), and now Netflix is facing accusations of censorship (8:09). The Huffington Post published an investigation last week into the medical company Ambrosia (28:49), a flashy blood-based startup that doesn’t appear to be all it is cracked up to be (35:38).

Hosts: Kate Knibbs and Justin Charity
