It’s not every day we interview one of our own directors on the Podcast, but when we do, it’s worth a listen. @durlauf.bsky.social talks with @nomadj1s.bsky.social about household finance, UBI, editing a special issue of the JEL, and what an individualistic perspective might omit.

I invite you to listen to this conversation with my wonderful colleague @nomadj1s.bsky.social,
Associate Director of @ucstonecenter.bsky.social, in which we explore the many interesting facts of his research ranging from racial inequality to consumer behavior.

I’m thinking Biggie put them on the map, that was late β€˜94 - β€˜95 …not β€˜92, right?

Yeah, he made it pop, but he wasn’t known until late β€˜94-β€˜95… not β€˜92 right?

One nitpick: I don’t know if Coogi was poppin’ like that in β€˜92

They don’t want race used
taught, or studied in higher Ed, or K12, AND are upset that a Smithsonian museum claims that race is a social construct and not a biological trait πŸ€”

So universities cannot take race into account, but then … πŸ€”

Defend the liberty of a stranger as you would defend your own, or that of a loved one, because that is what's actually on the tableβ€”whether we are a society that will sit still as our neighbors are snatched in the night, and disappeared into darkness, or a society that will fight for each other.
