Podcast Recommendations - 16/04/23

My favourite podcasts of the week.

EconTalk - Daniel Gordis: Israel and Impossible Takes Longer

Israel is an astonishing achievement, and I envy its self-belief, economic success, and innovative culture.

Sean Carroll's Mindscape - #232: Amy Finkelstein | Adverse Selection and Hidden Information

Confronting imperfect market realities is fun, but I get off the ride when we suggest "mandates".

The Megyn Kelly Show - #527: Sam Harris

Megyn took Sam to task over his comments about Biden's laptop. He defended himself well but not competently enough that he would have persuaded people.

Revisionist History - Malcolm Goes to Debate School

I admire Malcolm for admitting his failings, but he misunderstands Douglass Murray and is genuinely arrogant.

The Next Big Idea - Psych: The Story of the Human Mind

I could listen to Paul Bloom talk about almost anything. I'm undecided whether to buy this most recent book or "The Sweet Spot".
