It’s been a while since we’ve checked in on the U.S. Postal Service. We’re about three weeks into the Biden administration, so why is a political lightening rod like Louis DeJoy still running the post office? We’ll explain. Plus: more Elon Musk stonks and a new wrinkle in Kai Ryssdal’s vendetta against his internet provider. And, of course, we’ll finish off with a round of our favorite game, “Half Full/Half Empty.”

Here’s everything we talked about today:

• “How the Stock Market Works Now: Elon Musk Tweets, Millions Buy” from The Wall Street Journal

• “Postmaster general’s new plan for USPS is said to include slower mail and higher prices” from The Washington Post
