This week on “Happy Hour” Emily Jashinsky answers your questions about geographical sorting and how Covid accelerated it, why the algorithm rewards disagreement, and how we get out of the “doom spiral.” She also talks about her thoughts on the libertarian movement, social conservatism, and the free market economy. The podcast also touches on recent stories in the news including the Israel-Hamas deal, why the Arab world trusts Trump more than others in the West, and her recent chat with Glenn Greenwald. On the political front, Emily explains why she believes Hakeem Jeffries is the worst man for the moment for Democrats, California Gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter’s meltdown, and why she believes James Comey overcompensated for what he did to Hillary Clinton. Emily also addresses how she views her job as a journalist, what happens to CBS in the Bari Weiss Era, Taylor Swift and feminism, the importance of language, her Trump impersonation that listeners are loving, and if she ever plans to write a book.
