I just listened to professor Shepherd’s podcast while out on a run tonight and I loved it. I just had my first class of game theory last Thursday and I thought this would help me be more prepared for next class. I go to Arizona state and during the last half he took a shot at university of arizona calling them stupid, and he hasn't met any students from Arizona before. I enjoyed the lecture so I will not share this with Arizonans so you’re safe. Thank you for the upload!
Professor Polak structures the class adroitly. This works well as a podcast. I learned a great deal about auctions and enjoyed myself the while.
