In this episode, it is argued that it is not a reasonable goal for cooperative game theory to try to find a single privileged solution concept for bargaining games. Moreover, if it is a reasonable goal of cooperative game theory to try to find a single, unequivocal solution concept for bargaining games, then there would not be persisting and jutified irreconcilable variance in opinions about tradeoffs in agreement structure. To motivate this, theoretical convergence in quantum mechanics on the Schrödinger equation is discussed, and Nash, Kalai-Smordinsky, and Utilitarian solution concepts are raised.

This week we have a couple of early tall tales or urban legends from the 18th and 19th century.  First up is Tarrare, a French street performer and sometime soldier that was constantly hungry, eating literally anything organic he could get his hands on.  The second being Edward Mordrake, a supposed heir to a wealthy family that had a second face on the back of his head that whispered bad things to him at night.  Both fascinating, and both most likely tall tales, but certainly worth a listen.
