This is quickly becoming one of my go-to podcasts! Santi does a fantastic job sourcing guests with experience in key issues, asking interesting questions, and engaging intelligently with the responses. It’s clear he prepares well for every episode. The topics are often complex, but these conversations always leave me with a fresh and better-informed perspective.
If you love policy, economics, and America, this show is 110% worth your time.
I think I may have some differing political views from Santi, but listening to someone earnestly trying to figure out how to make this work is such a profound breath of fresh air. State capacity! Requisition rules! LFGoooooo!!
If you love and hate Robert Moses, this is the podcast for you.
Santi is cool
