Episode 41: Bryan Caplan on Education, Immigration, and Procreation

Economist Bryan Caplan is always fascinating.  He seems to just pick really interesting and provocative things to explore with the tools of economic thinking.  We discuss how he got into economics, his work habits, belief in personal bubbles, and explore three of his research areas.  Bryan was super easy to talk with and the conversation never slowed.

His first book, The Myth of the Rational Voter is here.  (This short article in Reason magazine summarizing some main points is also excellent.)

His second book, Selfish Reasons to Have More Kids is here.
