Recently, Bethany and Luigi joined economist and wealth inequality expert Branko Milanovic in front of a live audience at the Aspen Ideas Festival to explore how capitalism, democracy, and income inequality interact. Together, the three discussed the pervasiveness of income inequality around the world, its connections with democracy and political stability, if the inequality that really matters is that between countries, and if capitalism and democracy aren't as intricately connected as we thought. As a scholar of China's economic system, Milanovic discussed how much of the country's success can even be attributed to capitalism. In the process, the three unpacked if capitalist societies, particularly in the West, are able to address the very inequality they have produced. Are there free-market mechanisms to correct for inequality or does there need to be government intervention? If income inequality poses a dire threat to democracy, what should capitalists do to preserve the institutions that enabled their wealth in the first place?Read a book review of Branko Milanovic's Visions of Inequality: From the French Revolution to the End of the Cold War and how his analysis of class and inequality applies to contemporary America, written by former ProMarket student editor Surya GowdaAlso mentioned: Revisit our episode with Thomas Piketty on creating a more equal society and with Martin Wolf: Is Capitalism Killing Democracy?Also revisit our episodes with Sen.

Right before morning rush hour in midtown Manhattan on December 4th, 2024, UnitedHealthCare CEO Brian Thompson was shot and killed while on his way into an investors meeting. According to police, the suspected gunman was, “lying in wait for several minutes,” and then fled the scene following the attack. A nationwide manhunt ensued, and days later, Luigi Mangione was arrested at a Pennsylvania McDonald's and charged with Thompon's killing. Since he was accused of gunning down the healthcare CEO in broad daylight, Mangione has become a surprising cultural phenomenon. While most find the crimes Mangione has been accused of horrific, he has been branded as a modern-day Robin Hood by some who see the shooting as a stand against a corrupt and broken health care system. Mangione has pleaded not guilty to all the charges against him. John H. Richardson, author of ‘Luigi: The Making and the Meaning,' joins “Forbes True Crime” to discussSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In this episode, we're joined by Luigi Goria and Roberto Chiosa, the founders of Pin Vision — a golf technology company launched in 2022 that's changing the way golfers see the course. Pin Vision provides exact measurements to pins from anywhere using GPS technology, helping golfers make more informed decisions on every shot. Beyond that, the product also offers notifications to golfers, the ability to print pin sheets, and—coming soon—pace of play technology. We dive into Luigi and Roberto's journey from the initial idea to developing the technology and bringing it to market. With a strong presence in Italy and across Europe, Pin Vision is now expanding into the UK market. This conversation explores what it takes to start a business in golf tech, how innovation like this can enhance the golfer's experience, and how the team has grown their company from concept to reality. Entrepreneurship is often an under-discussed area of the golf industry, and it was great to chat with Luigi and Roberto about their experiences and insights.

Author and journalist John H. Richardson joins me to ruminate on his new book, Luigi: The Making and the Meaning, published by Simon & Schuster.

In his full book treatment of the case, Richardson follows the breadcrumbs Mangione left behind, painting a vivid picture of his influences and thinking, situating this violent act within our revolutionary moment. // Episode notes: https://www.lastborninthewilderness.com/episodes/john-richardson-2 // Sustain + support: https://www.patreon.com/lastborninthewilderness // Donate: https://www.paypal.me/lastbornpodcast
Luigi Mangione — accused of executing UnitedHealthcare's CEO — has apparently become a saint behind bars. He's mentoring inmates, adored by guards, and swimming in fan mail (and money). Scott breaks down how the media spin, inmate politics, and internet obsession are turning an alleged murderer into a folk hero.
Mangione isn't alone. A generation of alienated young men are reaching the same dark conclusion: The system is broken and only violence can fix it. Read More: www.WhoWhatWhy.org

Standard economic theory informs how we think about business strategy and the economy and presumes that people are selfish, have well-defined preferences, and consistently make welfare-maximizing choices. In other words, we are rational. But what if that is not the case?Nobel Prize-winning economist Richard Thaler is out with an updated edition of his bestselling 1991 book, "The Winner's Curse: Paradoxes and Anomalies of Economic Life." In the new edition, he and his co-author Alex Imas (both professors at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business) reflect on the last thirty years of behavioral economics and how it makes sense of tensions between our psychological biases and impulses that make us less than fully rational in practice. Using a wealth of empirical evidence, the authors explore the behavioral anomalies that contradict the expectations of standard economic theory and explain a wide range of real-world examples from banking crises to social media addiction.Earlier this month, Thaler joined Bethany and Luigi for a sold-out Capitalisn't recording in front of a live audience in Chicago to walk through the anomalies of human behavior that have endured from biblical times to the age of Big Tech. Thaler reflects on how views and the adoption of behavioral economics have changed over the last thirty years, both within academia and beyond (wonder why you can't put down your phone? Silicon Valley has read Thaler). He also shares how behavioral economics can influence public policy from canceling “junk fees” and dubious subscriptions to deciding which parts of the Affordable Care Act to keep and which are unlikely to produce their desired outcomes. Over conversation, light banter, and audience Q&A, Thaler shares his views on the state of capitalism and reveals how there is no grand unified theory of human behavior that incorporates all its irrationalities—only departures from the standard model.

In this episode of "Normal World," Dave Landau, 1/4 Black Garrett, and Angela open with the night's headlines, from National Guardsmen refusing to enter Portland to John Stamos' defense of Lori Loughlin. The crew unpacks the phrase “busted her up to the core,” swaps stories, and invites viewers to call in with their own confessions before diving into the week's strangest headlines. They react to Jeff Daniels' painfully sincere protest song inspired by the “No Kings” rally, then break down the bizarre story of Luigi Mangione, the man accused of ending the life of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson after a violent encounter in Thailand led to a spiral of rage over medical costs. From there, they cover a brazen daylight jewel heist at the Louvre, wonder how anyone fences stolen crown jewels in Detroit, and question TMZ's claim that Trump might commute Diddy's sentence. Later, they talk A24's new Friday the 13th prequel, the strange world of tribute bands, and a fan's oddly touching moment with a Def Leppard drumstick. The episode wraps with Jim Carrey's rumored Jetsons reboot and what a modern Spacely Sprockets might look like today. Today's guests on "Normal World" are Derek Richards and Kevin Kramis.

Before he allegedly shot UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, Luigi Mangione backpacked across Asia — and a shocking incident in Thailand is now emerging. According to WhatsApp messages, Mangione was allegedly beaten by a group of transgender women while partying in Bangkok. Diary entries also reveal what police say was his mindset in the months leading up to the shooting, including reflections on Ted Kaczynski, the Unabomber, and his growing anger toward the healthcare industry.

Today we'll be talking about Luigi Mangione's peculiar encounter with a group trans women in Thailand, corruption allegations at the airport as seized items pop up on Facebook marketplace, and a horrifying story of a man left in a skeletal state due to kratom addiction.
Luigi Mangione backpacked around Asia in the months before the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, according to the New York Times. Now, “Banfield” uncovers new revelations about Mangione from an American who spent time with him in a Thai bar. Then, the sheriff in charge of the case spotlighted in Netflix's latest documentary, “The Perfect Neighbor,” joins “Banfield.” Plus, the details on an Arkansas man running for sheriff who is accused of killing his daughter's alleged abuser.
Before he became the face of one of America's strangest murder cases, Luigi Mangione was having the time of his life in Thailand — or maybe not. According to his travel diary, Luigi's “journey of self-discovery” took a bizarre turn involving an unprovoked ladyboy ambush, a lost phone, and some deep spiritual reflection in Japan. Scott and Frank break down Mangione's strange trip abroad, the alleged assault, and what investigators found in his diary — because nothing says inner peace like chaos in Bangkok.
