Freedom Is Intoxicating with Jacob Grier

This week we talk about public opinions of capitalism, eliminating Covid relief slush funds, rolling back parking mandates, partisan perceptions of Twitter, and the fun of #EconTwitterIRL. Our interview this week is with author, barista, and public policy magician Jacob Grier. We discuss tobacco control, nutrition and public health, alcohol regulation, and the unintended consequences of prohibition. Free the Economy is hosted by Richard Morrison. Our producers are Scooter Schaefer, Phoebe Gersten, and Ryan Kracinski.
