It is one of the most powerful forces in existence. It has shaped our biology and our society. Our personal lives can be defined by it, or by the lack of it. Wars turn on it.

186 – The Wrong Boys decide to be nice for once
Critics call SRSLY WRONG ‘the meanest podcast of all time’, ‘two asshole jerks being haters for an hour every week’, and of course ‘wretched vitriol so toxic it could be considered biological warfare’. So we got to thinking — what would it be like if we were nice, for once? Would that help the spread of good ideas? Is being nice revolutionary?

Ep 178 – The People’s Republic of Walmart (w/ Leigh Phillips & Michal Rozworski)
Walmart is the world’s largest corporation, a mantle it has achieved by (internally) eschewing market-based allocation, and developing itself into a sophisticated and well-functioning globally-planned economy. This week, guests Leigh and Michal join the Wrong Boys to talk about their new book, and how analyzing the biggest, multinational, consumer-facing corporations puts to rest the myth that economic planning doesn’t work.
