NEW information starts around the 53:00 mark. For those who don’t wanna listen to the old episode again (aka MOST PEOPLE)

yeah

I absolutely love the Freakonomics podcast. I’m also a fan of other podcasts on the channel like No Stupid Questions. I just listened to the episode with the journalist and I liked it a lot. But I also like many other types of episodes. Just want to say Thank You!!❤️

Great Episode!

I reject the idea that ads have democratized the Internet. It’s made it worse in almost all ways. Google is influenced by ads. That’s clear. Their search for certain topics is absolutely terrible. That’s greed at work.

Google home is so so so bad. Doesn’t anyone at the company use it and care?

Very enjoyable tale of a very interesting man

You can’t use the bathroom during class??? School as prison model is alive and well, sadly.

Does not matter if you are the best lion tamer, the death defying  tight rope walker, every Circus needs a Ring master.  I have run into so many business’s where everyone is doing their job, everyone is capable, but no one is coordinating.    Love this episode.

I love when data confirms what I’ve long suspected. Thanks for covering this issue.

I think that would be a great solution. At my last company, the CEO was great at board relations but not at managing many other issues. She burned out and quit exhausted. A co CEO would have been great.

great

If books could kill, episode 1

I’m loving your podcast, Stephen!

A slippery slope is a legitimate worry when there is a reasonable expectation that the people heading down that slope will not be satisfied with the step down that slope. People against smoking were not satisfied until smoking only affected smokers. There were incremental steps down a slope to where we are now. Where slopes do not exist are when the people taking a step have no interest in the further steps people are worried about. marriage supporters had no interest in marrying dogs etc.

You have to get rid of the background music it makes it difficult to hear the information. Don’t know why this is a new thing for many podcasts. It’s very distracting.

love these insights about the planning fallacy

This is interesting...https://nypost.com/2023/04/29/black-group-tells-met-not-to-return-kings-slavery-profits/

I curse frequently and I rather enjoy it! When my son was a teenager, I was making him hang his clothes from the dryer on a hot summer day and he was complaining about the heat and I told him to stop being a …before I even realized what I was saying! I couldn’t believe I said that to him. But I think he was more surprised than I was and he hung his clothes without anymore complaining! Thanks for all you guys do!

I can’t believe your ”Bleeping” theword, this episode is useless. I’ll unfollow now

Kendy, anti racism , it’s all utter . It’s just a grift. The real racists are the black ”leaders” who whip up their followers to hate white and Asian people. How many of the ”leaders” are now millionaires?

Ok

It is a miracle and there’s a reason my grandparents generation viewed it as such. Planes were welcoming, spacious seats, good food, attentive staff. Now we’re flying sardines.

This has to be the longest, most complicated and most boring description of a game ever. I stuck with it for about ten minutes, after which I had less idea of what American Football is all about than when I started. Probably an exciting episode if you have the misfortune to be American, but otherwise not - and explains why no other country plays American Football.

luv it ”The hotel room soap wastage solution” Brilliant!

Democratic Campaign episode...

In case anybody from production reads these, just a comment that I hope after an introductory period this show gets its own platform separate from the regular content, like People I Mostly Admire has. If people want to listen, they’ll find it, but if I want to listen to a bunch of Freakonomics episodes this breaks the flow.

We need proportional representation so that third party candidates have a chance. End citizens united and get money out of politics. If we limited campaign contributions to $5,000 much of this bipartisan fighting would go away.

What a piece of.

Great episode! I’ve read Raworth’s book and loved hearing what Amsterdam is doing. Hopefully more of the world will implement these planet/society saving concepts sooner than later.

good

I’m still kind of near the beginning part of this episode but so far you haven’t mentioned I don’t think that the banana that we’re eating now is nothing like the original true banana started out to be plantain very different looking very different flavor different everything

I would definitely pay for a better search engine. Google needs a competitor. I’m curious why Lisa interpreted the data of the people with ads doing 3x greater search as positive for ads??? I do more searches when I don’t trust the results, not less.

I eat 400 bananas a year. I am so thankful for this yummy fruit. I’d be so sad if human activity kills their habitat.

Concussion. Anyone ever see that movie starring Will Smith ? It’s a real eye opener, very good movie. Explaining how dangerous Football is.

You have not mentioned the cost of the fuel cycle. Its mining and supply. If we had followed the Thorium cycle that is a good option.

So good!

👊🏻

Oh gosh I loved Stephen approach to the baptism offer

That’s crazy

It’s American diversity

So instead of taking a more immediate step of making public transport free to low income people, the mayor of Boston is deflecting to talk about Boston having the first public park centuries ago? 😱

Stephen Dubner is a great host. He is so very conversational - love it. The topics are also fun and engaging.

Who the was trying to break the federal reserve for the past fifty anymore of you thinking you like Allen Greenspan?

great topic

Sophia makes me cringe!
