Shana tovah, my bubelahs.  This is our year.  I can feel it.  Back to the serious stuff this week, including:

 * Back to shul for the high holidays and the synagogue capital campaign
 * The new Italian prime minister
 * Jeffrey Dahmer and some unsavory stuff
 * The Federal Funds rate and the threat of recession

I've had some requests for podcast transcripts.  I'm working on finding an automatic way to produce those for subscribers!

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

Elon Musk

Happy Passover (and Easter).  This week we have lots to cover, in a
controversial episode that will probably get me canceled, including:
 1. Some follow-up on the concepts of sympathy and empathy.  This discussion
    elicited a lot of debate after last week’s show.  I try to define them more
    clearly (at least as I understand the definitions).
 2. Mystery shopping at weight loss centers.
 3. Black Lives Matter buys some houses
 4. More on Hunter Biden, Twitter, and Elon Musk
