Mark Blyth (@MkBlyth), Professor of Political Economy at Brown University, joins us to discuss how understanding recent macroeconomic history, particularly the triumph on neoliberalism, led him to predicting Brexit and Trump’s victory. The Democrat bubble and how Bernie Sanders and Trump saw what the establishment didn’t. The technocratic story of how political professionals became detached from people. The scary ground being ceded to Tucker Carlson.

Fantastic interview, Michael. People like Blyth and Richard Wolff have really helped me to understand as well as become interested in economics as a field that I used to associate exclusively with classical economics.

Excellent interview. This guy hits the nail on the head. Big fan of Mark Blyth please please continue to have him on and take up his points more often.

Omar Omar

Awesome interview.

Aimee Laba

I concur, great interview and more Mark Blyth!

This was really good, and would be fantastic to share with more apolitical people (and maybe even certain Trump voters). If you're thinking about unlocking something, this would be a prime choice.

Mark Blythe is a bloody stud! He has almost zero percent emotional body fat, an undercurrent of deep motivational anger, and a mordant wit informed by a deep neo-Marxist historical dialectical analysis. I want to hear him once a month.

I've now listened to this three times. Great fucking interview
