What would count as true or false

True: a Conversations with Tyler episode with Andrew Ross Sorkin as guest was published on or before 2026-02-04. Mostly true: the episode exists and was published by that date, but a minor detail is off (for example it was released in a slightly different format, such as a live event recording). Mostly false: Cowen and Sorkin did hold a conversation, but it was published only after 2026-02-04, or it appeared somewhere other than Conversations with Tyler. False: no such episode exists, shown by a complete listing of Conversations with Tyler episodes around that date that does not include Sorkin.

Reasoning

Apple Podcasts lists the episode "Andrew Ross Sorkin on Market Bubbles, Banking Rules, and the Real Lessons of 1929" as published February 4, 2026 at 12:30 PM UTC, under podcast ID 983795625 (E1). Podcast Republic shows the same podcast ID as Conversations with Tyler and lists that episode with the date Feb 04, 2026 (E2). The official Conversations with Tyler page for Episode 269, which notes the episode was recorded October 30, 2025, and Cowen's Marginal Revolution post agree with these listings (E3, E4). So the episode was published on or before 2026-02-04.
