Hey there, it's Stephen Dubner.
Before we get to our episode, I'd like to invite you to come see Freakonomics Radio live.
I will be in San Francisco on January 3rd and in Los Angeles on February 13th.
For tickets go to Freakonomics.com live shows.
They are selling briskly I believe is the word.
So hustle up again.
That is Freakonomics.com liveshows one more thing.
The episode you're about to hear is what audio people call a two way and what normal people call a one on one conversation.
Most Freakonomics Radio episodes aren't like this.
We typically feature multiple voices, multiple angles, sometimes even multiple stories.
But there is a real opportunity to be had by going deep with one person.
So for the month of December, we are featuring some one on one conversations.
You will be hearing about the revolution in the GLP1, weight loss, drugs.
You'll hear from one of the best magazine editors of this generation.
And in a special episode of the podcast People I Mostly Admire, you'll hear a mind blowing conversation between Steve Levitt and an astonishingly creative neuroscientist.
In today's episode, a conversation with a political figure who several times over his career has been in the room where it happened.
With Donald Trump, with Joe Biden and with Vladimir Putin.
And one last reminder about our upcoming live shows with very special guests.
San Francisco, January 3rd, Los Angeles, February 13th.
