I talked to the very popular Noah Smith on a variety of topics. We talked about

Is America too insular?
Indian cultural exports to the US
Is economic growth zero-sum at the country level?
Where does he disagree with @jdcmedlock the most?
What are the deep causes of partisanship in America?
The moral coordination problem of going vegan
The political economy of solving NIMBYism
“America's national pastime is avoiding other Americans”

Do give a listen to this!
