Even though the American labor market is currently stronger than it has been in
decades, earlier this year Big Tech companies were laying off workers at an
alarming pace. Economists struggled to understand why some 25,000 tech workers
were losing their jobs, even as the media panicked about whether those layoffs

Jeff Shulman joins us to uncover the real reasons behind Big Tech’s layoffs, and
to explain their implications for workers.

Journalist Nick Romeo joins us to discuss his new book “The Alternative: How to
Build a Just Economy.” Romeo argues that the conventional economic wisdom has
fostered political and economic instability, resulting in widening inequality,
environmental degradation, and the exploitation of workers. He also highlights
innovative solutions and success stories—including worker cooperatives,
public-option marketplaces, and job guarantee programs— that paint a picture of
how we can design systems in a market economy that truly work for everyone.

This week, Nick and Goldy sit down with ethics professor Ingrid Robeyns to
discuss her groundbreaking new book, Limitarianism: The Case Against Extreme
Wealth. Robeyns challenges the idea that it’s acceptable to allow extreme wealth
concentration and inequality to persist, advocating instead for a hard cap on
wealth accumulation. Nick and Goldy navigate the moral and practical
implications of wealth limits on society, democracy, and ecological
sustainability.
