Ken Rogoff will surely win the Nobel Prize in Economics. (Did you know it is formally called the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences?) Until that time, this justly celebrated economist and sometime chess grandmaster continues to inspire leaders and ruffle feathers on the left and right alike with his exceptional scholarship, his commitment to telling the truth about debt, deficit, and doom, and his understated wry sense of humor. His new book, Our Dollar, Your Problem, is both essential and readable, and it coheres with his epic collaboration with Carmen Reinhardt from two decades ago, This Time is Different. Both should be required reading. On the other hand, as my exceptionally brilliant listenership shall learn, his taste in pizza is incorrect. Join me in my journey into one of the world’s most productive and insightful brains. Kenneth Rogoff, Finally. This is a public episode.

Matthew Barzun is a character you might find in a spy novel written by John Le Carré, a play written by Sam Shepard, and a novel written by Charlotte Bronte. He is courageous yet diplomatic, visionary yet modest, and sensible yet romantic. I like him a lot. Here you will find us discuss what is really means to be a US Ambassador, why the hell he has spent considerable time, energy, and resource reviving the Enemy of Nonsense, his literal favorite bite of pizza in the world, and the unsung guru of guru of gurus of management and leadership.
