Risky Business Preview

Hey, Joe and Tracy here. We're stopping by to share with you another podcast we think you'll really enjoy and find to be insightful, sharp, and entertaining. From Pushkin Industries, it's called Risky Business, and it's hosted by our friends Nate Silver and Maria Konakova.

Right. You might remember Nate and Maria from when they joined us last year to talk about political prediction markets. We were talking about how they work, how accurate they actually are, and what they can tell us about election campaigns and their outcomes.

Or you might be familiar with their work. Nate's the founder of FiveThirtyEight, an esteemed journalist and a political analyst. Maria has a PhD in psychology and is a New York Times bestselling author, and they're both high stakes poker players. So they know a thing or two about taking risks, making bets, and calling out bluffs.

On Risky Business, they look at how decisions are made, and they break down the odds, incentives, and risks behind the headlines to understand who's making moves and why. So they look at everything from politics to sports to personal decisions, AI hype, electoral races, and, of course, reality TV.

Enjoy this preview of Risky Business. And if you like it, find Risky Business wherever you get your podcasts. New episodes released twice a week on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
