  • Tyler needs his own podcast

    I’ve heard of the expression “you have a face for radio” but until I started listening to Jay I never heard the expression “you have a voice for the deaf.” On top of that Jay is annoying. Tyler is amazing and has great things to say. Jay always interrupts and Tyler just gives in. Tyler needs his own podcast

  • Tyler is insufferable

    And brings out worst aspects of jay. Horrible mix of warmed over twitter takes and wanting to be contrarian all at once. Long time listener and finally unfollowed.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

END TIMES FASCISM with Astra Taylor and Naomi Klein
Q: What do you prefer to do when introducing the book to the audience, a quick summary or a self-description?
The guests prefer whichever is more convenient; they acknowledge this is a tricky question but are open to either approach.
ANDY LIU RETURNS to talk China Shock 2.0 and the Robot Olympics
Q: What do you think China Shock 2.0 looks like in the U.S. context, especially regarding EVs and tech dominance?
The guests discuss the potential for China to reshape global auto and tech ecosystems via cost-competitive EVs and strategic partnerships, while noting domestic American auto industry concerns and the political hurdles in cross-border tech transfer; they speculate about the broader economic and geopolitical implications of a China-led tech race.
ANDY LIU RETURNS to talk China Shock 2.0 and the Robot Olympics
Q: So tell us a little bit about that history then. When did that actually start? Is it an actual government initiative?
Andy explains that China's Made in China push and the broader tech pivot began in the 2010s, with a clear shift around 2015–2016 toward higher-value manufacturing and investment in AI, EVs, and renewables as real estate cycles cooled and the economy sought new growth engines; this was reinforced by government incentives and provincial implementation strategies.
What's Happening with Abdul El-Sayed, How to Poll in Low Trust Times, and the Youth Vote with Adam Carlson
Q: How powerful are endorsements like Bernie Sanders' in lifting a candidate, and is it more about the endorsement itself or the underlying reasons voters already like that candidate?
Endorsements can turbocharge a candidate, but their effectiveness hinges on whether the candidate was already seen as viable and aligned with the endorser's base. The impact is often greatest when the endorsement follows credible polling and signals a real path to the nomination, rather than acting as a standalone catalyst.
What's Happening with Abdul El-Sayed, How to Poll in Low Trust Times, and the Youth Vote with Adam Carlson
Q: As a pollster, how do you think about paradigm shifts in voting behavior and the reliability of polls when energy on one side becomes highly energized or emotional?
You must widen the swing you're willing to model, inflate or adjust youth and minority turnout expectations when there's credible on-the-ground energy, and build models that can adapt to late movement. It's about balancing risk with plausible scenarios rather than clinging to pre-existing assumptions.
