“In my opinion that Hanauer’s view of economics is flawed and ultimately lacking when it comes to upper level theory or anything beyond “Econ 101” as he puts it.
No economist, applied or otherwise, worth her salt would use entry level theory to seriously approach any policy or research study. And to approach these subjects like minimum wage policy and Medicaid etc. you should have some higher level economics training and research experience.
However, the guests on this show have been pretty outstanding. Alan Krueger is a phenomenal economist and pioneer of labor research. Kwak and other guests have similarly been the high points of these podcasts and they should continue leaning into what works.
I suppose I am partially bias. I have been looking for a good progressive economics podcast and there are so few. But I have hopes for this one to improve.
Less Hanauer, more real economists.”

“This episode was too light on data and heavy on useless rhetoric. Big surprise - people are in favor of taxing someone else. How can you present someone as an expert on tax policy, when by her own admission, she didn’t know what a marginal tax rate was until this year? I’ve been hearing for...”Read full review »
