The Ezra Klein Show

Ezra Klein invites you into a conversation on something that matters. How do we address climate change if the political system fails to act? Has the logic of markets infiltrated too many aspects of our lives? What is the future of the Republican Party? What do psychedelics teach us about consciousness? What does sci-fi understand about our present that we miss? Can our food system be just to humans and animals alike?

Overall this is a 5 star show. Martin Gurri was a major exception. I love that Ezra brings on different perspectives but this guy is just well below the shows normal standard for reasoning behind their arguments. Rough from the start but once he started casting doubt on the legality of USAID and responded to Ezra’s push back with “All I can tell you” and a string of easily disproven nonsense he cemented himself as the most laughable guests on here I’ve heard in quite a while
Great but small criticism

I am definitely to left of Ezra, but love the podcast. He needs to get better at interviewing stupid people lol, like not everyone has a well thought out, coherent ideology so the interviews are occasionally painful.
Didnt like recent episode

I love this show and love Ezra and I will continue listening, but wow the episode with Martin Gurri was bad—he had really bad takes and just felt like such an un-interesting thinker. Maybe his writing is interesting but he was not good as an interviewee.
Thank You

Hey Ezra. Fellow millennial dad, here. Thank you for putting so much into this podcast. The world is bewildering, but the perspectives and mental models you share make it feel marginally less so. I hope you're taking care of yourself. ❤️ P.S. Please come to Minneapolis or Saint Paul on your book tour! P.P.S. I hope Ada Limón will be back again soon. P.P.P.S I think we might have similar taste in "focus music." If you haven't, you should check out Hiroshi Yoshimura. ("Blink" from Music for Nine Post Cards is my personal favorite.)
