In the superbowl episode they said the dude who wrote the "I WOULD FIGHT THAT RUDE CHILD" meltdown also wrote about 'what to do when a woman says no' that was super rapey. Which episode was that in? I gotta hear his views on women after that...

The person in question is Dennis Prager, I think that was episode 182

e: sorry I misread your question. The original Prager episode was 16

love it when the hosts repeat bits from cum town but also remove all the comedic beats so it's just saying the phrase "economy of respect" and then laughing at yourself

that part about "I thought hitting a child was wrong until a bunch of talk-radio listeners called into my show and told me they were beaten as children and turned out normal" is one of the funniest things i've heard on the pod

I wouldn't even mind so much if they hire crazy conservatives if they also added crazy leftists/progressives to balance it out. Why is that so hard?

quote:

Anonymous: You said that medical innovation will be wiped out if we have a type of national health care, because European drug companies get 80% of their revenue from Americans. Where did you get this statistic?

Megan McArdle: It wasn't a statistic--it was a hypothetical.

However, whenever I have been able to find pharma financial statements that break down their profits by region, the lion's share always comes from the US.


quote:

"Anyone who's sat through a budget meeting knows that almost everyone overestimates their successess, underestimates their costs; it's easier to go back for money later, when you can wave a nice hunk of sunk costs around, than say up front that you think whatever it is you're proposing will be expensive as hell. But trillions? US GDP is roughly $10 trillion. Alterman is saying that over the long run, this war is going to cost us at least 20% of GDP. That's nuts, and it's not the first time I've seen those sorts of numbers around. ... But making up ridiculous numbers in order to support your predisposition isn't helpful — and when the war doesn't cost us $2t, people are going to remember that the next time you talk about the costs of a program you don't like."

According to Reuters, the Iraq War cost the U.S. at least $2.3 trillion.


Matt is going to be nuts on the next episode taped after this insane hire.

Megan McGriddle posted:

I'd also like us to encourage people to gang rush shooters, rather than following their instincts to hide; if we drilled it into young people that the correct thing to do is for everyone to instantly run at the guy with the gun, these sorts of mass shootings would be less deadly, because even a guy with a very powerful weapon can be brought down by 8-12 unarmed bodies piling on him at once. Would it work? Would people do it? I have no idea; all I can say is that both these things would be more effective than banning rifles with pistol grips.
