En todos lados, desde muchos años, se habla de neoliberalismo. Sin embargo ¿qué significa realmente y sigue existiendo? ¿qué transformaciones existen dentro del mismo neoliberalismo? ¿estamos en la era postneoliberal?

Last week, we promised an upcoming episode featuring a conversation with Cory Doctorow — and that conversation has been recorded and is arriving next week! But we decided to take a brief intermission this week, since things in the social media landscape are changing so quickly. Mike recently appeared on The Neoliberal Podcast with Jeremiah Johnson to talk about the ongoing nonsense at Twitter, the dawn of Meta's Threads, the situation at Reddit, and all the other chaos engulfing the world of social media. You can listen to the entire conversation right here on this week's episode.

What on earth has been going on with social media? Threads is a brand new app with 100 m users. Reddit's moderators have revolted and the site is still feeling the effects. And Twitter continues to set itself on fire regularly. Why is all this happening? Mike Masnick of Techdirt joins the show, and we discuss the most chaotic time for social media in years. We talk about what caused Twitter's outage, whether or not twitter replacements like Threads can be successful, and how the different broadcast styles and economic models of social media influence the business and our posting.

What is the Abundance Agenda and how do we get there? Atlantic writer and author Derek Thompson and former Congressional candidate Suraj Patel join the show to discuss how to build an abundant society. Are the problems we're facing problems of scarcity? If the things we need like medical care, housing, and child care are getting scarcer and more expensive, why is the supply so low? How can we increase the supply of those things? And most importantly - how can we build a winning political coalition for the ideas that will increase supply and build abundance?

This week's episode is a joint episode with Andrew Heaton's podcast, The Political Orphanage. Andrew and Jeremiah discuss NEPA, the National Environmental Policy Act, and why environmental permitting has gotten out of control. Why does it take more than four years on average to simply finish an environmental review? Is NEPA even protecting the environment?

Why are boys struggling in school so badly? Why are labor market gender wage gaps closing, but educational gaps are widening? What can we do to make sure boys don't fall even further behind?

The world is so much richer than it was 150 years ago that past generations might look at society today and declare it a utopia. But how did we get here, and are we really living in utopia? Economist Brad DeLong joins the podcast to discuss his new book, Slouching Towards Utopia. We discuss the key factors that allowed economic growth to explode around 1870, why Brad builds a grand narrative around the 'long 20th century', and why economic growth is the most important lens for understanding human history in the last 150 years.
