Episode digest
written during extraction and stored in data/extractions/ep244.json — the auditable source of truth, including everything market-adjacent that did not earn a capture
Policy-heavy episode with zero tradeable captures. The H-1B $100K-fee shakeup dominates — all four broadly agree it pushes toward higher-skill selection; lots of immigration-policy back-and-forth but no one names an instrument or a directional market claim. Autism/Tylenol segment is science-and-liability discussion with no committed direction on any pharma name. Kimmel apology/return and the California hate-speech law are pure politics/media with no market edge. Two AI research papers get discussed but every forward claim is hedged ('could', 'we'll see') — nothing meets the capture bar. Labels: clean — full roster present and labeled, receipts consistent. Zero mentions extracted; episode still counts for conviction decay as a silent episode.
