529: No Coup
Spirit of the Czars Vodka Theft and McDonald's Health Claims
Two unusual media stories are discussed: the $1.1 million theft of "Spirit of the Czars" vodka in Florida and a Freakonomics blog post claiming the McDonald's McDouble is the "cheapest, most nutritious food" in history. The hosts dismiss both as likely marketing stunts or "bogus" corporate propaganda.
