    Please!
    Please come out with new episodes. I love listening to John’s views on the economy, and it would be nice to hear what he has to say nowadays.
  • Upgrade required

    Interesting content just apparently not interested in regular updated podcasts

    Delightful
    As usual, great stuff from Dr Cochrane. Professor Cochrane does a wonderful job at making the economic literature accessible to the lay person and he offers thought-provoking ideas and suggestions for policy makers. Keep up the good work!

    Anything John Cochrane touches...
    I’m delighted that Cochrane is allowing himself to be pushed into a podcast. Great stuff, keep it up!
  • Altarosk
    Great Podcast
    John Cochrane is a very smart man that is able to easily explain economics in ways that other economists I respect and follow/listen cannot, such as Tyler Cowen who tends to always over complicate things. I have great expectations for this podcasts. My only concern is the audio quality which is a bit poor and the sound isn’t loud enough/muffled, but I’m sure it’ll be fixed in time.
  • WafflesMan
    Typical Hoover Institution lies and misrepresentations
    Every economic assumption Cochrane makes redounds to the benefit of the ultrawealthy. And by the end, the real enemies of the economy are teachers making $60,000 a year, not billionaires buying elections and judges. Podcasts like this represent everything that’s wrong with the economics profession today.

    Sound quality
    Great podcast but sound quality was not good.
