Podcast Recommendations - 26/02/23

My favourite podcasts of the week.

Unsupervised Learning - Bryan Caplan: Open minds and open borders

Razib Khan prodded Bryan well despite agreeing with him about feminism.

Making Sense - #311: Did SARS-CoV-2 Escape from a Lab?

Sam is undeniably an honest and curious person looking for the truth. I appreciated this conversation with Matt Ridley and Alina Chan.

Freakonomics Radio - #534: Air Travel is a Miracle. Why Do We Hate It?

Good question. I went in sceptical and left persuaded of the beautiful complexity.

What Bitcoin Did - Economics on One Podcast | Ben Prentice

The government cannot stimulate an economy, only divert capital.

The Daily - A Year of War in Ukraine

The realities of war are unfathomably horrific. Journalism like this brings it slightly closer to conceivability.
