The Odd Couple Season 5, Episode 2: Setting it up and getting the data

In this week's episode of the Mixtape with Scott season 5, "The Odd Couple" Scott Cunningham (Professor of Economics at Baylor) and Catilin Myers (Professor of Economics at Middlebury College) set out to use Claude Code to get the data for their project studying travel distance to the nearest abortion clinic's effect on marriages in Texas after House Bill 2 shut down half the state's clinics.
