Scott Perry

@_LunarBird_ @Vitus_oss First off you'll have to explain to me how a child dying of cancer was brought about by mans free will. But more to the crux of the issue, He understood what would happen if he created man with free will yet he still did it.

@EconTalker Makes sense. Im always looking for a way to shoehorn Ted Williams into conversation.

@ScottPerry23639 Just a way of mentioning "most" as in HRs. Teddy Ballgame was undoubtedly the greatest hitter who ever lived...

This week's EconTalk episode with Mike Munger (the Babe Ruth/Hank Aaron/Barry Bonds of EconTalk with 51 appearances and counting) marks the 20th anniversary of the program. EconTalk has been supported from the beginning by Liberty Fund, an Indianapolis-based foundation started by an Indianapolis businessman, Pierre Goodrich, who believed in great books, conversations around the ideas in those books, and the importance of liberty. So while LF was started long before the internet, EconTalk (conversations around ideas) seemed very much in his spirit. When I started, I didn't know how hard it would be to do. Early on, I realized we had to come out every week. In the early years, we took off a week or two for the holiday break of Christmas and New Year's. But we stopped doing that long ago. We haven't missed a Monday for something like 850 weeks. LF pays me to produce the podcast and then we give it away which is wonderful. And being a Hoover Fellow also allows me to put in the time necessary to produce the podcast. So I am grateful to both organizations for the freedom to create EconTalk over the last 20 years. And now Hoover will be releasing episodes on YouTube as they come out. You can head over to the Hoover Institution page on YouTube and find EconTalk every Monday morning along with other video Hoover produces: @HooverInstitution/videos" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@HooverInstitu… All 1041 episodes are available without charge at the EconTalk.org website, and at my website, russroberts.info. Most (if not all) podcast sites like Spotify or the iPhone podcast app have all the past episodes as well. You can also find all the past episodes at EconTalk's YouTube page, @econtalkwithruss" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@econtalkwithr…, which is a little complicated now that Hoover is also distributing them but I assume you will figure it out. The older episodes don't always have video... Doing 1041 EconTalk episodes over 20 years has been an extraordinary experience. I have grown tremendously. My interests have widened. It has shaped me in ways I'm sure I don't completely appreciate. I like to think EconTalk has stoked my curiosity about the world around me. When I was younger, I wondered if I would hit some goal like the 1000th episode and stop. Now I think I will only stop when I can't do the job the way I think it should be done. So as long as I can keep reading, hearing, thinking, an speaking, and I can have a good internet connection, I hope to continue. What a privilege it has been to speak to smart, interesting people every week for 20 years and to be able to share that with my listeners. I am grateful to everyone at EconTalk who supports the program and helps me get this done. These days that's Lauren Landsburg, Rich Goyette, Les Cook, Katie Flavin, Marla Goldfinger, Sarah Skwire, Shelly Rogers, Cassandra Karnick, Blake Van Der Kamp, Pat Lynch, and Sean Shelby. And many thanks to those who started with me at Liberty Fund way back at the beginning or nearly so, Emilio Pacheco, Jim Cote, and Amy Willis. And now there is a new team at Hoover who is working on the YouTube side: Shana Farley, Jonathan Movroydis, Vy Nguyen, and Imagine Gonzales. I apologize if I have forgotten anyone. And of course, I am grateful to all of you who listen and who have stuck with the program even as we moved away from focusing on economics. I always enjoy hearing from you. Thanks for being part of the journey. See you next Monday.

@MarinersONTap Oh naylor is definitely fucking with him

I’ve come to the conclusion that this whole thing was lame by Cal Raleigh. Just dap them up man.

What you see here is called "lying" It's what happens when someone's anti-competitive protections are under attack CON laws are insane. Basically: If you want to open a new medical practice somewhere, you have to get your potential competitors to sign off, saying you're needed

@Jesus_way_maker @Jupjami @0xleegenz ...I'll take the garbage island in the ocean if all my children get to see adulthood instead of just half of them.

@Jesus_way_maker @Jupjami @0xleegenz Civilization is a construct insulating us from the unforgiving vicissitudes of nature. It mitigates the brutishness of both external nature as well as our own inner natures. Are new problems created by civilization? Of course. There are no solutions, only tradeoffs but...

I can't believe human were gifted a planet with full of trees, fruit, water, animals and sunshine and then they invented debt, capitalism and war

@huangmi12916508 @0xleegenz Ill keep my toilet and living children. You have fun larping out your pre-agricultural return to nature.

Earth gifted us free trees, fruit, water, animals & sunshine and we really said 'nah let's invent debt, capitalism and war' Humans fumbled the biggest bag ever This vid got me two seconds from quitting my job and going full caveman in the woods... who's packing bags with me? Drop your escape plan

@batolomeo_hd @0xleegenz Have fun outside the matrix without indoor plumbing and like half your kids dying.

@0xleegenz It's a matrix for everyone. If you want to break out of that matrix, you have to prepare for 10-20 years and go against the crowd.

@MarinersSUR Didn't look like a joke to me. Hard to tell with Randy's comments unless you speak Spanish, but the initial interaction seemed organic. Randy leaning in to hear what Cal was saying better and then the lack of animation (which i would expect if they were trying to prank us).

I initially assumed Randy was joking but reading between the lines of cal headed for visitor clubhouse last night & dans comments that doesn't seem to be the case? I'm sure cal/randy will squash it but yikes

@DMOE_FAN @DKramer_ Yeah let's hope its not bad but whether it amounts to no concern or a clubhouse destroying level of concern, Dan would say the exact same thing.

@DKramer_ Damage control

Dan Wilson has seen the clips of Cal Raleigh and Randy Arozarena from last night at the World Baseball Classic -- as have Mariners players -- and he planned on speaking to each this morning. "I don't anticipate this being any bit of an issue." mlb.com/news/cal-ralei…

@Ken_Rosenthal @ocrahope Is the blue part the vagina?

Tonight’s bow tie for Mexico-USA in World Baseball Classic on FOX at 8e/7c: Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance. Ocrahope.org @ocrahope

@shannondrayer There's always next year

If you are just casually glancing at the Mariners score I have one word for you. Wind.

@rawmilkhoney Look a picture of 2 women id fuck

What men think Botox and fillers looks like vs what it actually looks like

@JakePearson303 GLP-1s literally make ppl more successful at whatever crackpot program their detractors offer as a superior weight loss alternative. So with their excellent safety profile, GLP-1s are by definition superior to boofing balsamic vinegar or whatever other goofy shit you wanna sell.

They're pushing Ozempic on men, a chemical shortcut that makes you weak. It burns muscle, kills drive & costs a fortune. Real men don't take shortcuts that weaken strength. They build it. It starts with a tool they buried: Apple Cider Vinegar. 1. The… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Remember, longevity doesn't care about your lifestyle.

@MsPlayerDev Hoo dem?

BIG SMILES.

@ashleycoo8p @MLB @MLBNetwork Depends. Are you gay?

@ScottPerry23639 @MLB @MLBNetwork do u mind if we get to know each other

To the women who help make our game great at every level, from the field to the broadcast booth to the dugout and beyond, we salute you this #WomensHistoryMonth.

@KafkaesqueKlamm @dbladd93 @avidseries @StefanMolyneux Then why does Stefan refer only to the mean???? That's what @avidseries is responding to

@dbladd93 @avidseries @StefanMolyneux Though what @avidseries forgets is that the average/median IQ is irrelevant - the elites' is what really matters. Iran is, after all, the nation of Omar Khayyam and Maryam Mirzakhani. Iraq/Afghanistan have nothing to match that...

The most decisive reason why Iran is not like Iraq IQ • Iran: ~104.8–106.3 • Iraq: ~93.6–94.0

@Patributt @avidseries Yeah i cant imagine there'll power vacuums or unintended consequences.

@avidseries Let’s just go ahead and take care of this once and for all. The world will be better off for it.
