Another BP Podcast is up. You can listen on Libsyn, Apple, Spotify, and Stitcher (and a variety of other platforms). Probably the easiest way to keep up the podcast since we don’t have a regular schedule is to subscribe to one of the links above!
You can also support the podcast as a patron. The primary benefit now is that you get the podcasts considerably earlier than everyone else. This website isn’t about shaking the cup, but I have noticed that the number of patrons plateaued a long time ago.
I would though appreciate more positive reviews! Alton Brown’s “Browncast” has 30 reviews on Stitcher alone! Help make us the biggest browncast! At least at some point.
This episode features Omar, Mukunda, and Akshar talking to Harsh Gupta, an investor and author. We discuss the big picture geopolitics of the Galwan clash in Ladakh, Indian civilization, and why Harsh is going long on India. Some positive vibes in a trying time for many!
is harsh that pale?
hahahaha
Well he is a marwadi from Kolkata , ur mortal enemy
what does that mean? i have a vague idea but not too clear
Marwadi are bania migrants from Rajasthan who control Kolkata economy and considered parasites by local bengalis ; Also Jagat Seth, who organised Clive + Mir Jafar was a Marwadi
Jagat Seth was Marwari Jain. Marwaris of Kolkata that control business are Agrawals, Maheshwaris (e.g. Birla) , Jains and some other trading castes.

How BJP has owned the national security issue and why China won’t change that
Just finished listening. Amazing podcast.
Akshar, economics uses mathematical modeling to analyze questions and optimize general equilibria.
There are no singular answers . . . only a deeper understanding of various issues and how they correlate with each other.
Economics works best when interdisciplinary. Sadly this doesn’t happen nearly enough . . . because economists tend not to be specialists in many different scientific and technology modalities.
Omar, I agree with Harsh on China. One of the primary objectives of China since 1962 has been containing India.
Would love to have Harsh back and ask different questions. Love his analytical mind.
