What’d we miss? Nothing good, apparently. - a podcast by Marketplace

We have two routes to the dark place today: That harrowing U.N. report on the climate crisis and the 2021 redo of all the COVID superspreader angst we went through last year. We’ll talk about both before getting into some of the stories we missed over the weekend. Plus: Who do you have on your Nickelodeon character bracket?

Here’s everything we talked about today:

• “Some Climate Change Effects May Be Irreversible, U.N. Panel Says” from The Wall Street Journal


• “COVID vaccines to be required for military under new US plan” from the Associated Press


• Plus a little additional context


• “From Fall Out Boy to Counting Crows — Shows Shutting Down While Delta Surges” from Rolling Stone


• “Sturgis Rally 2021 sees high attendance, police, law enforcement say” from the Argus Leader


• “NCAA Undervalued Women’s Basketball Tournament by Millions While Prioritizing Men’s Tourney, Report Finds” from The Wall Street Journal


• “A recall of Philips respiratory devices has left users stranded” from the Verge


• “The Best Nickelodeon Character Bracket” from the Ringer


• “This is the world’s blackest black ink. It’s like staring into infinity” from Fast Company
