À propos de ce contenu audio
What happens when bold predictions of global catastrophe meet…reality? In this episode of Happy Hour Econ, a comedian and an economist take a hilarious yet insightful deep dive into The Population Bomb and the legacy of Paul Ehrlich’s infamous overpopulation predictions.
Lou and Phil dive into why humanity stubbornly refused to starve (thanks, innovation!), how government policies sometimes make things worse (oops), and why betting against human ingenuity might be the worst long-term investment strategy ever.
Welcome to Happy Hour Econ from Free To Choose Network, where comedian Lou Perez and economist Phil Magness serve up weekly shots of economic reality with a chaser of sanity.
No PowerPoints, no pretense—just two guys who've figured out that the best way to understand why everything costs more is to stop taking it so seriously.
Pour yourself a drink, pull up a stool, and join Happy Hour Econ—because understanding the economy shouldn’t require a Ph.D. or a hangover.
