In this episode, your hosts Jacob Cohen (@Conflux) and Andrew Imbens (@Imbens) primarily discuss markets that you might bet on for reasons other than belief: self-resolving markets, dating markets, and personal goal markets. We recorded this episode on April 19, which is awhile ago! It is, for example, just as the beginnings of the Whales v. Minnows controversy were heating up. Well, we finally edited it — it’s sort of a “from the vault” episode — but I think our takes aged well, such as our roasting of Crystal Ballin’ for not being real. The episode also features a certain call-in guest. For links to markets mentioned in this episode, go to tinyurl.com/mmp-ep3-shownotes!
