11/6/26, Co-Host—Josh Silver
$ Trillions! Max Page with Princeton Economics Professor & Obama economist Owen Zidar on the $6.5 TRILLION in assets held by billionaires and the $65 TRILLION (that’s not a typo) held by “The Everywhere Millionaire[s]” (that’s the title of his new book) among us. Who should pay how much?
Community Action! Ex Dir Lev Ben Ezra and Fuel Assistance Program Director Josette Bartley speak about our neighbors who can’t afford to heat their homes and how we can help. “Heat-Up!”
Political Gold! Josh Silver on the state of the senate races in Alaska and Mississippi & how the Blue Tsunami has eviscerated the traditional Republican v Democrat analysis. Spoiler alert: class and opportunity matter way more.
Mr. Spaceman! Salman Hameed (not Bill Lee) talks to us about how science fared in Tuesday’s elections, funding for UMass research, and the discovery of a new dwarf planet.
ArtBeat! Betsy Stone talks with Pamela Dodds about her new exhibit at the Oresmon Gallery at Smith College, “Documenting Border Barriers.”
