Ep 178 – The People’s Republic of Walmart (w/ Leigh Phillips & Michal Rozworski)

Walmart is the world’s largest corporation, a mantle it has achieved by (internally) eschewing market-based allocation, and developing itself into a sophisticated and well-functioning globally-planned economy. This week, guests Leigh and Michal join the Wrong Boys to talk about their new book, and how analyzing the biggest, multinational, consumer-facing corporations puts to rest the myth that economic planning doesn’t work.

Ep 174 – Mark Zuckerberg, will you be our friend?

This week The Wrong Boys gaze into The All-Seeing Face, longing for joy and human connection, instead finding a malicious, psychologically invasive hell casino that tracks their every move and thought, creating a trove of information so vast and powerful that no mere human could morally choose how to wield it. In a desperate last attempt to fix this dystopia, the boys send a friend request to the man in charge of it all, and then wait, nervous, yet hopeful, that Mark Zuckerberg will finally become their friend.
