Reasonably Happy with Paul Ollinger

Family, Politics & The American Dream with Raj Goyle | Reasonably Happy


Listen Later

Raj Goyle is running for Comptroller of New York state, and he wants your support. He’s got mine because I think Raj is what America is all about. A first-generation Indian-American, Duke undergrad and Harvard Law grad, Raj was the co-founder of Bodhala, a legal spend analytics and management platform which he and team sold to Onit. As the leader of Phone Free New York, Raj led a bi-partisan effort to get phones out of the classroom across New York state. And now he wants to take his immense talent and experience to Albany for the most important position (Comptroller!) you’ve never thought about. As you’ll hear, there’s plenty that Raj and I disagree about. But he’s the kind of person we need more of in government: a smart, driven leader who wants to make government work for citizens. Among lots of other things, Raj and I discuss:

-Zohran Mamdani, the NYC mayoral candidate whom Raj supports and I DO NOT
-What a comptroller does
-Money, happiness, and public service
-What it was like for his parents–both doctors–to emigrate to the U.S.
-How Jimmy Carter helped shaped his belief in ethical capitalism and an accountable government
AI’s impact on the economy and what we can do about it
