Podcasts I’ve hosted
Found in the Struce
Ideas shouldn’t get “lost in the struce”: they should be put on a podcast! Explaining challenging concepts from economics, statistics, social science, data science/tech, philosophy and EA… without watering it down. You’ll come away with real knowledge and insight that you didn’t have before. Reading and discussing articles and posts; mine & others. Short takes/short ideas, & some gripes and musings on language, society, & culture. Findings & themes from behavioral science, carefully considering the evidence (not just sensational headlines).
Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts or the show page.
EA Forum Podcast
We read particularly interesting or impactful posts from the EA forum.
I co-founded it and was a regular reader, and helped with its move to a professionally narrated version (later AI-narrated).
