The David Eagleman episode solidified my opinion that Levitt is autistic (source: peer review; I am autistic). Great episode, loved all his questions.

This podcast is always enjoyable. I like his voice, and of course I enjoy the interviews. I enjoyed this particularly possibly because I am almost 77 years old and I figured this out about 30 years ago. I made up my mind to be happy with whatever I had, and I am. My life is full! I read what I want, study what I want, interact with whom I want, see my great grandchildren regularly (maybe not quite enough😁), and it made me joyful to be affirmed by this man.

Easily my favorite podcast. The whole family of shows by Freakonomics is great, and People I (Mostly) Admire is The best.
