Fck Kanye More

Hello, my bubelahs, and happy Thanksgiving! This week we have a lot to cover, including:

 * The FTX blow up.  We have a lot of detail here, including the supposed polycule. Where did the money go?
 * How come the mainstream press has been so gentle to FTX? Does it have to do with the CEO’s political alignment? His donations?
 * All the good FTX news has broken on Twitter. And Twitter under Elon is more fun than ever. He is doing a great job.
 * The World Cup is fun to watch!
 * Disney has a new (old) CEO. I don’t think he was so incredible the first time around, I’m not sure why all the hype that he is back.
 * The LSAT is gone at a lot of top schools. We discuss standardized tests as part of a strategy for racial discrimination.

TV Time

On this week’s podcast, I had the privilege of speaking with Geoff
Shullenberger. Geoff is a teacher at NYU and an accomplished author and thinker.
He is one of the world’s leading experts on the work on Rene Girard. We had a
far-ranging discussion covering:
 * What is the new right? What does conservatism mean now?
 * Ayn Rand as the intellectual ancestor of everyone on the “new right”.
 * The David Pogue article in Vanity Fair – it’s a very important piece
   [https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/04/inside-the-new-right-where-peter-thiel-is-placing-his-biggest-bets].
 * JD Vance and compassionate individualism
 * Christopher Rufo and his anti-CRT crusade
 * Anti-partisanship
 * The firing of Felicia Sonmez at the Washington Post
 * Elite Overproduction – is there such a thing and is this theory credible?
 * The myth of scarcity
 * Rene Girard, mimicry, social contagion, and transgender kids
 * And much more

I highly recommend listening to the whole thing, I learned a lot from Geoff and
I think he is a great intellectual.
You can find Geoff’s writing on his blog Outsider Theory
[https://outsidertheory.com/] and in Compact Magazine
[https://compactmag.com/columnist/geoff-shullenberger] as well as on Twitter
[https://twitter.com/daily_barbarian?s=20&t=Q-8T0OuUJ6aYCxekhtGdzg].
