NEW NEWS THAT'S NEWSWORTHY:
Basic Books (Sowell's publisher) is teaming up with The Genius of Thomas Sowell Podcast to offer listeners a chance to win 4 Sowell books. Enter at SowellBooks.com for a chance to win!
In this episode we speculate on whether or not Thomas Sowell will be awarded a Nobel Prize in Economics for 2021, which will be announced in 3 days.
To discuss this subject, we invited John Cochrane on to the show.
John used to teach Finance and Economics at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. He is now the Rose-Marie and Jack Anderson Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. John writes a blog called “The Grumpy Economist” where he explores many topics in the field of economics. He writes books as well as columns for the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg and appears on many podcasts as well as hosting his own podcast called The Grumpy Economist.
John’s essay entitled “Sowell Nobel?” lays out the case why the Nobel committee should finally recognize Tom Sowell for his many contributions to the field of Economics. You can read the essay HERE.
Alan makes 5 announcements in his introduction to the show:
