Funding Tensions in Academia

Hello!

Very excited to see so many new subscribers to the podcast over the past two weeks. As a reminder, we are a fully listener supported show so if you could help us keep the lights on over here with a paid subscription, we would greatly appreciate it. Our goal is to always at least provide one show a week for free, which TTSG has been doing now for almost five years.

This week, we take a page from sports podcasts and do a fantasy draft of celebrities who should run for President in 2028. We also talk about DOGE’s moves, how we should think about the fact that some of these cuts seem relatively small when compared to the rhetoric they generate, while also being mindful that there might be a point where the dam breaks and everything gets defunded and deregulated. And Tyler gloats a little bit about the Eagles Super Bowl.

Enjoy!
