Adam Smith may be known as 'The Father of Economics,' but 400 years before him, Muslim scholar Ibn Khaldun was putting forward economic theories that are now taken for granted. IDEAS explores Ibn Khaldun's famous book, Muqaddimah and the lessons it has for us on the philosophy of history, economics, biology, sociology, and political theory. *This episode originally aired on June 24, 2021.

We all have moments where we learn something that shifts our perspective. Maybe it was an inconvenient truth, an inspiring story, or a profound observation. And now that you know it, you can't unknow it. Maybe you feel like you should do something about it. But what? Sure, you could get started, but how do you know you're doing the absolute best thing. You just need to know a bit more—just a few more searches, articles, and experts—and THEN you'll be ready to act. Besides, you've already done the most important thing—you raised awareness. But is just being aware getting you anywhere? What would it take to actually make a difference?If you're new with us, let us know how we can be praying for you, we invite you to fill out an online Connect Card by visiting https://southhillschurch.churchcenter.com/people/forms/91550—If you are looking for what is next for you, we invite you to fill out an online “Next Steps” card by visiting https://southhillschurch.churchcenter.com/people/forms/672517To give with us select the Give tab on the Church Center App or visit https://southhills.org/giving/ and select the Corona Fund or Corona BOW Fund—Visit our Linktree to find out more about everything mentioned in today's message or follow along with the message slides:https://linktr.ee/SouthHillsCorona —To RSVP for On-Campus Events select the Events tab on the Church Center App or visit https://southhills.org/corona/
Revelation 2:18-29 | Adam Smith
Revelation 2:18-29 | Adam Smith
Adam Smith narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher. In this guest blog, Adam offers a view of what to expect from the Alzheimer's Association International Conference (AAIC) 2025. Drawing on past experiences, he outlines why this global event matters, what makes it unique, and how first-timers can make the most of it without becoming overwhelmed. From orientation lounges to poster sessions and career development opportunities, Adam provides reassurance and practical advice for navigating the intensity of a week at one of the biggest dementia research conferences in the world – whether you're attending in person or online. Find the original text, and narration here on our website. https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/blog-aaic-2025-big-busy-and-worth-it/ -- Adam Smith was born in the north, a long time ago. He wanted to write books, but ended up working in the NHS, and at the Department of Health. He is now Programme Director in the Office of the NIHR National Director for Dementia Research (which probably sounds more important than it is) at University College London. He has led a number of initiatives to improve dementia research (including this website, Join Dementia Research & ENRICH), as well as pursuing his own research interests. In his spare time, he grows vegetables, builds Lego & spends most of his time drinking too much coffee and squeezing technology into his house. -- Enjoy listening?

Rep. Adam Smith (D-Seattle/Bellevue) joins Rantz in-studio to debate immigration, trans rights, antisemitism, and the economy.
I originally intended to fit something like this into the previous episode, but it clearly is too big. But here I'm talking about why local control of schools matters for us as citizens, what the state ought to be doing to invest in the cultivation of civic virtue, what districts can be doing to facilitate good conversations about schools, and ultimately, our own obligations as citizens to participate in the good governance of our public schools.LINKS:Wauwatosa's financial transparency page.

Ekonomiye yön verdiğine inandığımız kuralları ve formülleri bir fizik kanunu gibi tartışılmaz görmek, bir anlamıyla ilahlaştırmak. Adam Smith'ten bu yana dünya kadar ekonomik kriz yaşanmasına rağmen liberal ekonominin kurallarını tartışılmaz görmek. S.S. Öğün hocanın yazılarında, programlarında çok sık tekrar ettiği şekliyle “homo economicus” u putlaştırmak.
After the 2008 financial crisis, and especially after the COVID pandemic of 2020, an increasing number of Americans are questioning the wisdom of unregulated markets and envisioning a more active role for the state. Scholars have coined a panoply of neologisms to capture this view of the political economy, including political scientist Kenneth Vogel's “marketcraft.” The term indicates that the state not only lays the foundation for markets through the protection of the rule of law and property rights, but it also shapes market economies through policy interventions and regulatory institutions like the Federal Trade Commission.Chris Hughes' new book, “Marketcrafters: The 100-Year Struggle to Shape the American Economy,” traces how governments led by both major parties have worked with the private sector since the country's founding to intentionally and strategically shape markets. The narrative reveals how Adam Smith's proverbial “invisible” hand has always been rather quite visible.Hughes is a co-founder of Facebook who left the company in 2007 to work for former President Barack Obama and is now completing his PhD at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School. Hughes joins Bethany and Luigi to discuss the government's historical role, both in success and failure, of marketcrafting to rebalance economic power and create fairer and more efficient markets. Their journey takes us from the creation of the Federal Reserve in 1913 in response to a series of banking failures to recent mass investment in the semiconductor industry. Together, they discuss how to stop marketcrafting from becoming a victim of the political process, how it is operationalized differently in times of normalcy versus times of crisis, and how it must navigate the limits of individual and institutional power. Finally, they also discuss whether it is truly possible to craft markets in advance or only to correct market flaws after a crisis, with Hughes' own prior stomping grounds at Facebook as their case study.Read an excerpt of the book on ProMarket here.
In this episode, Phil Treadwell and Adam Smith dive into how less competition in today's market actually creates more opportunity for those willing to show up consistently. They talk about getting back to basics—having real conversations, picking up the phone, and building authentic relationships.

The conversation is a powerful reminder that mindset, consistency, and genuine engagement are what truly set top professionals apart.

We made it to Episode 100 - and we're only just getting started. In this milestone episode, Adam and the team reflect on the journey so far, what's changed (and what hasn't), and the lessons that have stuck along the way. This one is about authenticity, people pleasing, emotional masks, and the price of pretending to be someone you're not - whether that's to keep the peace, fit in with old mates, or live up to a version of yourself that no longer exists. From headbutting strangers in a bar at 45 to drinking because “it's what the lads do,” this episode unpacks the hidden cost of living out of alignment. We explore boundaries, belief systems, and how your ego might be keeping you stuck. You'll hear everything from emotional acceptance to visualisation work, Paul Daniels references, and why your best self might just be clearing his throat in the next room - hopefully not while wearing golf shoes and downing Jägerbombs at 9am.

What is capitalism, really? Drawing on Adam Smith, Douglass North, and his own experience as a teacher and economist, economist Michael Munger of Duke University discusses three stages of economic development with EconTalk's Russ Roberts: voluntary exchange, markets, and capitalism. Along the way, the conversation explores the moral and institutional foundations that make impersonal exchange possible, the transformative power of the division of labor, and how capitalism uniquely enables "time travel" through liquidity and equity finance. The conversation closes with a discussion of human needs beyond material well-being.

What if that's not the goal though? What if God doesn't want us to get rid of it, but to grow through it? What if you didn't have to fall apart under pressure? What if you could persevere?

Karl Marx in America (University of Chicago Press, 2025), by Andrew Hartman To read Karl Marx is to contemplate a world created by capitalism. People have long viewed the United States as the quintessential anti-Marxist nation, but Marx's ideas have inspired a wide range of people to formulate a more precise sense of the stakes of the American project. Historians have highlighted the imprint made on the United States by Enlightenment thinkers such as Adam Smith, John Locke, and Thomas Paine, but Marx is rarely considered alongside these figures. Yet his ideas are the most relevant today because of capitalism's centrality to American life.In historian Andrew Hartman argues that even though Karl Marx never visited America, the country has been infused, shaped, and transformed by him. Since the beginning of the Civil War, Marx has been a specter in the American machine. During the Gilded Age, socialists read Marx as an antidote to the unchecked power of corporations. In the Great Depression, communists turned to Marx in hopes of transcending the destructive capitalist economy. The young activists of the 1960s were inspired by Marx as they gathered to protest an overseas war. Marx's influence today is evident, too, as Americans have become increasingly attuned to issues of inequality, labor, and power.After decades of being pushed to the far-left corner of intellectual thought, Marx's ideologies have crossed over into the mainstream and are more alive than ever. Working-class consciousness is on the rise, and, as Marx argued, the future of a capitalist society rests in the hands of the people who work at the point of production. A valuable resource for anyone interested in Marx's influence on American political discourse, Karl Marx in America is a thought-provoking account of the past, present, and future of his philosophies in American society. Andrew Hartman is professor of history at Illinois State University. He is the author of A War for the Soul of America: A History of the Culture Wars, published by the University of Chicago Press, and Education and the Cold War: The Battle for the American School. He is also the coeditor of American Labyrinth: Intellectual History for Complicated Times. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature.

"IS THE CIO DRAGGING DOWN THE FAMILY OFFICE'S PERFORMANCE? (And What Can You Do About It?)" with R. ADAM SMITH. https://open.spotify.com/episode/1Cl26HkpjZBnovg3zumuBx?si=0c7e252e629d4603 https://youtu.be/p3VtFCVpp8o The Family Office CIO job involves a delicate high wire act. The position can be the fraught intersection of: Asset Allocation (& collision of "endowment" vs "family adjacent" strategy) Cash Management Deal Sourcer/Vetter Club Deal Gatekeeper Risk & FOMO mitigater Overall One-Man Band R. ADAM SMITH advises families around deal and investment structure via RAS CAPITAL PARTNERS. We discuss the evolving CIO in family offices, Our discussion addresses the importance of expectation-setting on both sides. We get into what the families can do to understand their own needs (and why they might be the problem!). The goal is to help both sides unlock potential and get out of the way of performance. Adam Smith's Background (2–3 min) Adam gives a brief personal background and current work with family offices Set up the problem: Many family offices operate with misaligned or underperforming CIO structures Mention growing tension between opportunistic deal flow vs. structured allocation frameworks CIO Dragging: Defining the“Non-Functioning CIO” (3–4 min) Describe what a non-functioning or misaligned CIO looks like in a family office Common traits: reactive, relationship-driven over process-driven, lacking risk discipline The consequences: inconsistent returns, governance confusion, lack of accountability Deal-Driven vs. Allocation-Based Models (4–5 min) Explain the difference between a deal-centric CIO vs. one focused on institutional-style allocation Why the dealmaker mindset often prevails in emerging family offices Tradeoffs: speed and access vs. diversification, scalability, and defensibility Challenges when there's no clear investment policy statement (IPS) Why Do Families Tolerate This? (2–3 min) Emotional and trust-based dynamics—families often default to familiarity over structure Over-indexing on "access" as value Underestimating the long-term risks of ad hoc strategies What CIO Institutionalization Looks Like (3–4 min) What a functional, institutional CIO framework looks like (clear mandate, reporting, delegation, rebalancing discipline) Role of governance in supporting this structure When and how to make the transition—triggers and best practices Cultural and Generational Resistance (2–3 min) Why some families resist institutionalization How generational shifts are challenging legacy CIO models Importance of aligning values and objectives—not just tactics Closing Thoughts THE CIO DRAGGING ON THE FAMILY OFFICE PERFORMANCE (2 min) Tie back to broader themes of sustainability, legacy, and governance in family offices Call to action: revisit your CIO model—does it reflect your goals or just your past? Emphasize the importance of aligning investment leadership with broader family vision Other CIO Dragging Considerations- Do the staffing and comp models adequately align the employer and employee? What does a successful structure look like and how much does it cost? What dos a minimum structure look like and how much does it cost? Are CIO's under resourced and put in a failing position? How does career risk factor into CIO decision-making? Does the threat to the family's relevance in decision-making risk factor into this? How much time is wasted doing “pretend” work to maintain access to other family offices deals? Do you measure investment adjacency to the family specialty and how should that affect the evaluation of the CIO's performance? What happens when a deal-centric CIO is thrust into an asset class that is out of their expertise? What is the benchmark performance for a FO CIO these days? On the ESG, DEI,
From the I Wish You Knew Podcast, Adam Smith and Andrey Korikov break down why modern relationships are struggling—and what we can do to fix them. From the neuroscience behind attachment to the biology of bonding (yes, men and women really do connect differently), we explore how stress, sex, and communication shape connection.We break down why conflict isn't something to avoid—but the key to building trust. Plus, why the divorce rate is falling not because relationships are thriving, but because younger generations have stopped marrying altogether. Most people don't know what a healthy relationship looks like—let alone how to be a partner.Adam shares his CEO–COO model: a high-functioning partnership framework rooted in shared purpose, executive-level communication, and teamwork. We also discuss actionable strategies to connect with avoidant partners, communicate clearly, and rebuild the lost relational skills our culture has forgotten.Produced by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

People say the first step is the hardest. And...maybe. But you've started a million different things, and first steps aren't really your issue, follow through is. Maybe like mine, your life is peppered with unfinished projects, undeveloped ideas, false starts, and first drafts. You have so many good intentions but get sidetracked so easily.

A ceasefire between Israel and Iran appears to be holding at this hour.President Trump spoke briefly to reporters this morning on the White House lawn. He used an expletive and said he was unhappy that the two countries had both initially violated the agreement to pause attacks. More than a week after Israel kicked off the new war with Iran, Trump intervened on Saturday by ordering a U.S. strike on three Iranian nuclear sites. This morning the president has been re-posting messages on social media from supporters calling his handling of the conflict “an overwhelming…victory” and “a historic masterclass.” But a member of Washington's congressional delegation disagrees. Guest: Adam Smith is a House Democrat who represents parts of Bellevue and Seattle all the way to Auburn and Federal Way.

We all want our lives to count. We want to feel like what we do matters. But we can't all matter, right? I mean, there's 8 billion of us. Just because we want our life to count doesn't mean it does. In a world of big business, algorithms, and AI, is anything you do actually going to make much of a difference? How could the little you're able to do possibly amount to much of anything? The Scriptures insist that our actions ARE significant. But is that true? If so, in what way?

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit andrewsullivan.substack.comBatya is a journalist and author. She's a columnist for The Free Press, a co-host of The Group Chat on 2Way, and the author of two books: Bad News: How Woke Media Is Undermining Democracy, and Second Class: How the Elites Betrayed America's Working Men and Women. Her forthcoming book is about, as she puts it, “why Jews are Democrats and why the left turned on the Jews.”For two clips of our convo — on Trump's class warfare, and deporting non-citizens over speech — head to our YouTube page.Other topics: raised in an Orthodox family; debating issues with her parents and five siblings during Shabbat; spending high school in Israel; same-sex education; the mikveh; how sexual desire is better with limitations; becoming secular for a decade; getting a PhD in English literature; her “accidental” entry into journalism during Hurricane Sandy; the Great Awokening in media; Trump's despicable character; his fickle tariffs; his tax cuts; Congress ceding power to Trump; Biden's tariffs; his investment in factories and infrastructure; his disastrous immigration policy; Batya's evolving views on Trump; marriage equality; Bostock; trans activist ideology; Trump's EO on trans servicemembers; Scott Bessent; the overreach of neoliberalism; Adam Smith; the tax cuts in the BBB; crypto; defunding science at Harvard; gutting USAID; the State Dept's AI surveillance; the 1952 McCarthyite law; Öztürk and Khalil; UNRWA and Gaza; Israel striking Iran; and the possibility of regime change.There were eight clashes over facts in the episode. Chris ran them through Grok, which one presumes would not be too biased against Trump. You can read the eight back-and-forths on the web version of the episode. You should listen and, with these independent sources in mind, decide for yourself on the facts. I think I missed the mark a little a couple of times, but was specifically wrong in assuming that Batya was all in on the war against Iran and always had been. I apologize for that — and for getting a bit too amped up. I should try not to do that when I'm a host and I hope Batya will forgive me. But a vast amount of the chat was nonetheless delightful — and this is a stressful time. Coming up on the Dishcast: Paul Elie on crypto-religion in ‘80s pop culture, Walter Isaacson on Ben Franklin, Tara Zahra on the revolt against globalization after WWI, Thomas Mallon on the AIDS crisis, and Johann Hari turning the tables to interview me. (NS Lyons has indefinitely postponed a pod appearance — and his own substack — because he just accepted an appointment at the State Department; and the Arthur Brooks pod is postponed because of calendar conflicts.) Please send any guest recs, dissents, and other comments to dish@andrewsullivan.com.
