Hello! Today, we have a big episode with two parts. First is an interview about a new book by Emily Galvin Almanza, a former public defender in California who has worked with nonprofits the Stanford Three Strikes Project and the Bronx Defenders. More recently, she is the co-founder and executive director of Partners for Justice, a nonprofit creating a new collaborative model of public defense. Her new book The Price of Mercy is finally out and she stopped by to talk about the criminal justice system and a recent op-ed she wrote about free buses in New York City.
In the second half, we welcomes Bharat Ramamurti, the former deputy director of the National Economic Council of the United States under the Biden Administration and a recent college graduate and thinker named Anuraag Routray about a recent paper they wrote about how to fix the sports betting industry without going full narc on everyone. Enjoy!
