Episode description
I’ve long followed Dr. Loury’s career since I read a 2002 profile about his life in First Things. To say it’s been interesting is understating the case. For those who are more curious, I highly recommend the Glenn Show, which has been running in various forms since 2008.
On this podcast we discuss:
-
The value of economics as a predictive discipline
-
Classical papers and texts in economics
-
The abolition of the GRE
-
The fall of the American academy
-
China and globalization
-
Dr. Ibram X. Kendi
John von Neumann came up a few times. Once in relation to Dr. Kendi.
