Dr. Stiglitz warns that the conflict in Iran is likely to have much more serious consequences for the U.S. & world economy than the Trump administration expected. In particular, the disruption of energy production could very well create an energy crisis similar to the one seen in the U.S. in the 1970s. Jack and Dr. Stiglitz also discuss Stiglitz’s work, including the recent The Road to Freedom, which touches on inequality, the cost of war, and economic freedom. Finally, they go over the effects of AI on employment and what the collapse of an AI bubble would mean for the economy. Recorded on March 9th, 2026.
