Podcasting and the Fragile Public Discourse - Tiger Interviewed by Rob Johnson

Policy Punchline

Our host Tiger recently received his first ever podcast interview as a guest on the Economics & Beyond podcast hosted by Rob Johnson, President of the Institute for New Economic Thinking (INET). This is certainly a great honor for him, as Rob’s guests typically range from Nobel Laureates to accomplished public intellectuals. They talked for 3.5 hours, and the interview is being published in two parts. Part 1 is Rob interviewing Tiger on podcasting, the “tyranny of meritocracy,” and the fragility of today’s socio-political discourse. Part 2 is Tiger interviewing Rob on the drawbacks of economics academia, his current work at INET, his previous journey as a policymaker and investor, and the future of market capitalism.
