Your hosts are back with another hot track. This time, we talk about The Baker Center for Leadership and Governance's 2018 poll on American confidence in social institutions. You'll never guess who Americans trust the most (just kidding, you'll probably guess). This leads us into some discussion of how philanthropy works as a conservative strategy intent on reproducing the status quo. Then we talk about Patrick G. Ryan, founder of AON insurance and we muse on the fact that commercial insurance is a financial prerequisite for modern infrastructure as we know it. Our second billionaire is Vinod Khosla, co-founder of Sun Microsystems. Khosla's Twitter bio reads "entrepreneurship zealot, grounded technology possibilist, believer in the power of ideas." We don't know what that means, but it apparently underwrites his belief that he can seize public land for his private use, as he did with Martins Beach in California.
Our guest today is Christian Torgrimson. Christian is a founding partner in the firm of Pursley Friese & Torgrimson in Atlanta, Georgia and an excellent condemnation lawyer.

• In fight over Martins Beach, locals just want respect for their prized coastline
The US Supreme Court this week declined to take up the case of tech billionaire Vinod Khosla's attempt to privatize a popular beach near Half Moon Bay, California. Locals rejoiced with a gathering at the beach this week, but the fight isn't over and Khosla is sure to regroup. To explain what's going on at Martins Beach and what could happen next, I called up Chad Nelsen, CEO of the Surfrider Foundation, the group that sued Khosla over public access to Martins Beach and won, We cover the whole case and discuss similar examples across California of other private groups trying to keep the public from accessing the coast.
