Rerun: Ep5 "Why You Can't 'Agree to Disagree" with Robert Aumann

For the end of the year, Jules and Jonathan are taking some well-deserved time off, and wanted to rerun a past episode they love for the new audience who has joined since then.

Is it possible to unravel the paradox of disagreement in rational decision-making? How should we dissolve discord? In this episode, hosts and finance professors Jonathan Berk and Jules van Binsbergen are joined by Robert Aumann, mathematician, professor, and Nobel Prize winner, as they discuss acknowledging errors and embracing diverse viewpoints, with stories of Nobel Prize-winning luminaries showing the importance of evolving one's understanding in light of new evidence.
