Do Democrats have a 'Slopulism' problem? ft. Ben Ritz
Democratic senators are proposing plans that would drastically reduce taxes on the middle and upper middle class. Tax cuts are always popular with the people who receive them - but are they a good idea? Ben Ritz joins the podcast to discuss why Democrats keep proposing 'slopulism' ideas about the budget, why the budget math for huge tax cuts doesn't work, and why this approach is politically dangerous for Democrats.

The Right Kind of Inclusivity
Society has gotten radically more inclusive the last few generations. This has largely been a good thing, and prevented countless people from being discriminated against on the basis of their gender, race, or sexuality. But is there an upper limit to inclusivity? Can it go too far? And can we become so 'inclusive' that we end up alienating, harming, and excluding people?

The Science of Second Chances ft. Jennifer Doleac

Jennifer Doleac joins the podcast to discuss her new book, The Science of Second Chances. We talk about the best evidence for how to reduce harms from the criminal justice system, to reduce crime levels in our communities, and why some activists are so allergic to neutrally examining the evidence.

Are Immigrants Draining Our Resources? ft. David Bier
Opponents of immigration often cite the idea that immigrants are a drain on the system. It's commonly believed that immigrants don't pay enough in taxes and take too much in government benefits. But is that true? David Bier joins the podcast to discuss the counterintuitive truth - that immigrants are net fiscal contributors, not takers.
