In our first interview in our new series on Effective Altruism, Pete and Dan sit down with philosopher and educator Joshua Kissel, an effective altruist and author of the article "Effective Altruism and Anti-Capitalism: An Attempt at Reconciliation." We discuss the nature of Effective Altruism as a movement and a philosophy, address Kissel's claim that leftist politics and effective altruism are complementary to each other, and consider whether anticapitalist social movements can learn from EA and vice versa.You can find more about Josh and his research at joshuakissel.com.This episode was edited by Dan Thorn (@danieljtvthorn) of Pink Noise Studios in Somerville, MA, and it features theme music by Danny Bradley.
