Do you have a big enough tribe such that you can now quit your day job and head out on your own?
When do you decide, this is the time?
Perhaps we all haven't had the same kind of success as journalist, radio personality and now podcaster Josh Barro, but if you're looking for someone that works hard to pull it all together in this space, checking out Josh is a good start.
Very Serious is a weekly conversation with top political commentators, columnists and policymakers, focused on how events in the news relate to major, long-standing controversies in politics, economics and culture. Joined by a rotating set of regular guests to work out the ideas behind the arguments on topics serious and not-so-serious. Josh's goal is a great conversation across ideological lines that hopefully leave you entertained, enlightened, and maybe even persuaded. We found Josh easy to listen to and sufficiently cerebral despite his overuse of the word salient.
In this episode Mike and Eric focus on his episode with Matt Yglesias, that in fairness, Mike didn't get all the way through.
In total, we listened to the following episodes, which are all mentioned at some point in our review: "Why Is Flying Such a Nightmare Right Now?", "Allison Schrager on Why We Can't Have Nice Things", "Tyler Cowen on Identifying Talent" and "Matt Yglesias on Popularism, Joe Rogan, and Getting 'Back to Normal'". They can all be found at the link below.
