JMG on Institute for Sound Public Policy podcast

[ecosophia]

Yes, I'm back on the (virtual) airwaves again, having a conversation on enchantment, disenchantment, communities, magic, and bland watery beer with Kevin Lynn on the Institute for Sound Public Policy. It was a good lively hour of discussion. Interested?  You can listen in here.

If a discussion of enchantment on a podcast about public policy suggests to any of you that we've crossed some kind of threshold, well, that's what it suggests to me, too.

I was looking through the rest of their website and thought the same thing. Perhapd the start of a new liberalism?

Enjoyed the discussion about the Turtle Effect! "Low ranking turtles get crushed by the stack above them and leave the workforce." Indeed work is getting ever more pointless and crushing. We have forgotten customers even exist.

As a funny aside, the Urban Dictionary defines the Turtle Effect as "what happens to the male anatomy when it's cold outside."

Thanks for this podcast!
