Reasoning
The published Conversations with Tyler episode page, "Rachel Harmon on Policing (Ep. 98)", is dated 2020-06-17. It shows Cowen interviewing Rachel Harmon, a University of Virginia law professor (E2), and says the conversation was recorded June 8th, 2020 (E1). The show's Libsyn archive for June 2020 lists "Rachel Harmon on Policing" (E3), and a Marginal Revolution post from 3 June 2020 announced the upcoming Conversation (E4). All of these sources come from the subject himself. The verdict rests on the published episode, which is the deliverable itself, and its date matches the 17 June 2020 claim.
