Carbon removal has gone from a niche climate concept to one of the world's most important challenges. Reid and Aria sit down with Nan Ransohoff, Head of Public Goods at Stripe and a leader behind Frontier, the advanced market commitment helping build the market place for carbon removal. Nan explains why cutting emissions alone won't be enough to meet climate goals, what it will take to scale carbon removal from thousands to trillions of tons, and why governments—not just companies—will ultimately need to create and fund the markets that make it possible. They discuss the most promising carbon removal technologies, the role AI could play in accelerating climate solutions, and what it means to be a "general manager" for challenges that affect all of humanity.

Venezuela, ICE shooting and taxing the rich to fund schools and public goods

Battleground Wisconsin

We lead off with Trump's gun boat diplomacy in Venezuela and the shocking bloodshed perpetrated by ICE in Minneapolis. What does it mean and how is the resistance to authoritarianism responding so far? We welcome State Representative Ryan Clancy to discuss three game changing progressive tax bills that would transform how Wisconsin funds K-12 schools, local governments, and other public services. If enacted, Wisconsin would become the first state to fund K-12 schools primarily through a progressive income tax, leading to a 44% reduction in the median Wisconsin property tax bill. The two other bills restore Wisconsin's estate tax for those valued higher than $15M, and create a new local option income tax on the ultra wealthy. We review new analysis by Wisconsin Watch that 46% of State's private school students get public-financed vouchers and 96% are in religious schools. We close with the U.S. House revolt against Trump and Speaker Johnson on the expiring ACA affordability subsidies. Nine Republicans defied Trump and Johnson, forcing the vote, all from swing districts, but not Derrick Van Ordin. Does it have a chance in the U.S. Senate? At the state level, some legislative Republicans are advancing a bill requiring transparent hospital pricing for “shoppable services” that has split the big corporate business interests from the hospitals. Is there an opening among Republicans and corporate interests to rein in Wisconsin's astronomical hospital prices, which are the highest in the Midwest and the 5th highest in the country? Robert also asks why Senator Chris Larson is the only Democrat co-sponsoring the legislation?

What if the loudest stories in politics are really about insecurity, not strength? We start with the whiplash of overnight headlines and a White House obsessed with optics, then trace how petty theater bleeds into policy with life-or-death stakes. The thread is simple and sobering: when leaders reward cruelty, the most vulnerable pay for it. We dig into the targeting of gender-affirming care, the threats to hospital funding, and why deference to doctors and real expertise is a civic duty, not a partisan stance.From there, we get personal. Faith without empathy rings hollow, so we revisit the early AIDS era, Magic Johnson's watershed moment, and the way testimony can change hearts. We talk about projection—how unhappy people outsource their pain—and the antidote that actually works: service. Helping others reliably produces joy and meaning, which is exactly why it's absent from the politics of resentment. The money conversation follows naturally: nonprofits and tax write-offs, the discipline of “enough,” and the hard truth about billionaire wealth, loopholes, and the public goods that should never be optional: health care, education, housing, clean water.Culture gives us oxygen. We celebrate Rob Reiner's legacy—from When Harry Met Sally and The Princess Bride to Spinal Tap and Misery—and how great directors pull out performances that remind us what empathy looks like. Even our Hallmark detour has a purpose: why familiar tropes soothe when the world spins off its axis, and where brands lose the plot when they chase reality-show gimmicks. It all circles back to a promise: name the petty, protect the vulnerable, and choose compassion as a daily practice.If this conversation moved you, share it with a friend, subscribe for more candid culture and consequence, and leave a review to help others find the show.

Infrastructure in the U.S. now costs dramatically more than in countries like Germany or Croatia—without clear signs of higher quality or better environmental outcomes. Why has infrastructure spending spiraled out of control? Could democracy itself—through litigation, regulations, and empowered citizen voices—be driving costs sky-high?George Washington University Professor of Public Policy Leah Brooks investigates why the U.S. pays so much more per mile of highway compared to other nations in her paper “Infrastructure Costs”. Brooks reveals shocking findings: from the late 1960s onward, the cost to build highways in America surged dramatically, not because of higher wages or materials, but because of legal battles, environmental reviews, and citizen demands.

Public Good vs. Public Goods in Higher Ed, with Jonathan Gyurko

What makes something a public good? In short, inclusion and access. It cannot exclude anyone- regardless of background, socioeconomic status, or creed. Dr. Jonathan Gyurko, repeat Pencil Buster, joins us to discuss his recent article on higher education's status as a non-public good. Although our institutions of higher education- even those that call themselves "public"- aren't at this moment public goods, but they can be.

What makes something a public good? In short, inclusion and access. It cannot exclude anyone- regardless of background, socioeconomic status, or creed. Dr. Jonathan Gyurko, repeat Pencil Buster, joins us to discuss his recent article on higher education's status as a non-public good. Although our institutions of higher education- even those that call themselves "public"- aren't at this moment public goods, but they can be.

So given the recent DOGE of it all, it seemed like a great time to revisit this conversation—now with one of its authors, Donald Cohen. We discuss the role privatization plays in government waste, and who stands to gain from the transformation of public funds into private wealth.

In episode 164, we're excited to welcome David Casey, CEO of Funding the Commons, a project incubated by Protocol Labs that builds bridges between builders, researchers, and funders transforming funding models and mechanisms for public goods. We discuss why Web3 has become a hub for public goods funding experimentation, some of the most exciting innovations coming out of the space, the challenge of balancing reward and impact in funding mechanisms, some of their upcoming events and experiences, and much more.--Three Key Takeaways--If the Web3 ecosystem is truly committed to funding and scaling open-source software, it's important for different protocols across the ecosystem to collaborate and develop shared public goods funding mechanisms to support the digital public goods that benefit the ecosystem as a whole.When coordinating conferences and events around public goods funding, it's important to engage diverse sectors including the public sector, international NGOs and organizations, the Web3 community, and academics and researchers. Many of these communities have decades of experience in public goods and can bring important perspectives to the conversation.To reach a broader audience and scale Web3 public goods mechanisms, it is important to focus on building more accessible and user-friendly UI/UX, including solutions that reach the last mile. A great example of this is the launch of Mini Pay on the Opera Browser.--Full shownotes with links available at--https://www.cryptoaltruism.org/blog/crypto-altruism-podcast-episode-164-funding-the-commons-blockchain-based-infrastructure-for-public-goods-funding-mechanisms--Support us with a Fiat or Crypto contribution--Learn more at cryptoaltruism.org/supportus--DISCLAIMER --While we may discuss specific web3 projects or cryptocurrencies on this podcast, please do not take any of this as investment advice, and please make sure to do your own research on potential investment opportunities, or any opportunity, before making an investment.

In episode 163, we're excited to welcome Nico Gallardo of LottoPGF, the creators of permissionless lotteries for public goods funding on Ethereum. We dive into the history of lotteries as a funding mechanism, why Ethereum is such a powerful force for community coordination and capital allocation, how permissionless lotteries are set to disrupt traditional public goods funding, unifying degens and regens to advance public goods, and much more.--Three Key Takeaways--There is a strong history of lotteries funding public goods like universities and charitable institutions, but traditionally these lotteries have been heavily centralized, with decisions around capital allocation being made by a centralized authority. A decentralized, permissionless lottery would put this power in the hands of the community.Lotteries today require a high degree of trust. You must trust that the individuals receiving and holding the money will use a fair process for choosing a winner and will distribute the funds as promised. A blockchain-based lottery would address this by creating an open source, trustless system for choosing a winner and allocating funds.Traditionally “degens” and “regens” have been viewed as opposites that are incompatible with each other. However, there are a lot that these communities can learn from each other. Degens, on the one hand, are great at coordinating communities and raising funds, and there is a lot that regens can learn from this. As such, it's important to explore ways that these two communities can work together for social good.--Full shownotes with links available at--https://www.cryptoaltruism.org/blog/crypto-altruism-podcast-episode-163-lottopgf-unifying-degens-and-regens-as-a-force-for-public-goods--Support us with a Fiat or Crypto contribution--Learn more at cryptoaltruism.org/supportus--This episode was recorded on Zencastr!--Interested in starting your own podcast?
