Show has been gradually declining, but after this week I won’t bother with it anymore

“I’ve been listening to this show for years and it used to be one of my favorites. They used to have more guests and the hosts were well prepared. The hosts occasionally offered hot takes, but usually confined themselves to areas they actually had expertise in. There was some drop in quality when Ms. Szymanski left, and a pronounced drop in quality when Ms. Ishmael left. They have fewer guests, more lackluster preparation, and the hosts offer more hot takes on things they don’t know anything about.
This week’s episode was the last straw for me though. The title “Could Global Inequality Actually Be…Good?” was pure clickbait, and up there with the most obnoxious Slate contrarianism. Even more disappointing was the lack of substantive material in the segment. Essentially we learned that a paper was published that found a huge drop in the GINI coefficient during the pandemic. That’s it. The rest of the segment was Mr. Salmon and Ms. Peck trying to gin up an argument around the topic of the title, without much success.”

“...when I have a sense what they're talking about. So far the only money/econ type podcast I know of besides EconTalk -- which is great. Slate Money is definitely as good as Political and Culture Gabfests.”Read full review »
