=== 2019 === {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1093003325753090049 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=Had a blast with @SamHarrisOrg in Detroit and Milwaukee. But I fell in love with Boston when I lived there between 1985 and 2003 and DC is where I cut my teeth on hard ball immigration & CPI policy in the 1990s, so these dates are particularly special. Boston was really home. |quote= {{Tweet |image=ExperimentsIC-profile-EZn-Av9-.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/ExperimentsIC/status/1092894153825021954 |name=Experiments in Conversation |usernameurl=https://x.com/ExperimentsIC |username=ExperimentsIC |content=Sam and Eric had such a great time together that they didn't want the conversation to end. So we're excited to bring these two back together for the Experiments in Conversation events in Boston on 2/27 and Washington DC on 2/28.

But just lay off the personal unless you want to talk specifics. This is Twitter. We donāt footnote everything here. |thread= {{Tweet |image=clairlemon-profile-s6sWsIIw.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/clairlemon/status/1165418446147862528 |name=Claire Lehmann |usernameurl=https://x.com/clairlemon |username=clairlemon |content=I donāt like the name calling in this tweet but I am getting sick of the way the Weinstein brothers pontificate about science without providing any specifics to back up their broad, sweeping arguments https://x.com/jameslingford/status/1165408205607825408 |timestamp=12:19 AM Ā· Aug 25, 2019 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1165765220561588224 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=Ooh. So you are joining the reputational attack strategy? So letās talk āspecificsā! Hereās a āBroad sweeping claimā: economics is a gauge theory & this discovery was suppressed by Harvard economics professors trying to transfer billions hacking our CPI: {{#widget:YouTube|id=h5gnATQMtPg}} |timestamp=11:17 PM Ā· Aug 25, 2019 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1165765932670582784 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=Cut it out Claire. We all want you to succeed. Stop trying to prove you arenāt tribal for your detractors. Or give me specifics on Changing preferences on cost of living. Or elongated telomeres in laboratory rodents vs wild type. Or any of the specific charges we make.

Weird parse. No. Mostly we never get to the good stuff. We spend so much time worrying about hand holding that we never get to higher topics. People donāt even know they are there to be learned. |thread= {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1207325750761668608 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=Wow. Thank you Jonathan. Predictably, The Portal featured on almost no mainstream āBest of 2019ā lists w/ our amazing roster of guests as we grow in size with actual listeners & get great people. Hopefully we will be no less acceptable in 2020. Pirate radio is the place to be. |quote= {{Tweet |image=Jon_M_Baker-profile-ZikhR4Ry.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/Jon_M_Baker/status/1207321892266401792 |name=Jonathan Miles Baker |usernameurl=https://x.com/Jon_M_Baker |username=Jon_M_Baker |content=2019 has been a huge year for podcasts and they're getting exponentially better. The quality of discussion is now so high that I'm learning more from this medium than any other. @EricRWeinstein & @tylercowen's recent conversation exemplifies this: https://t.co/SOSoDblt7i |timestamp=3:29 PM Ā· Dec 18, 2019 }} |timestamp=3:44 PM Ā· Dec 18, 2019 }} {{Tweet |image=4rt_yy-profile-lc9WBYdt.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/4rt_yy/status/1207346514890280960 |name=Rt |usernameurl=https://x.com/4rt_yy |username=4rt_yy |content=Yes Eric, your content is just TOO taboo for the main stream media to handle! CONTROVERSIAL topics such as āleft badā and āfree speech goodā can only find the light of day with INTELLECTUAL JUGGERNAUTS such as yourself.

What makes this ānot mainstreamā is not controversy. Itās talking about hard issues like gauge theory in economics as a means to stop wealth transfers from '''CPI hacking''' as we touched on in this episode.
