This spring I discovered Michael Lewis’s podcast Against the Rules. Now in season three, there’s far-reaching insight and entertainment here. It’s available through Spotify and other podcast platforms. Season one focuses on referees, season two on coaches, and season three on experts. Highly recommend all three seasons
In “Against the Rules,” journalist and bestselling author Michael Lewis takes a searing look at what’s happened to fairness—in financial markets, newsrooms, basketball games, courts of law, and much more.
In Season 3, Michael tackles America’s expert problem. Why is it so hard to figure out who the real experts are? And why, once we’ve found them, are they so rarely the people calling the shots? Here is a direct audio link to the trailer.
