With economic systems failing millions of Americans, Jon is joined by Nobel laureate and University of Chicago Professor Richard Thaler, one of the founding fathers of behavioral economics. Together, they explore why conventional economics fails to account for how people actually behave, discuss Thaler's approach to improving systems from within, and debate whether incremental improvements can meaningfully reform broken systems. Plus, Jon talks Nationalizing Voting, Suing Trump, and Bad Bunny vs. Kid Rock!
