What happens when public policy is built on narratives instead of numbers? We get bloated budgets, broken housing markets, and education systems that spend more but deliver less. In a world flooded with information, the real scarcity is truth. This episode features guest Jim Agresti, founder and president of Just Facts, to discuss public policy, misinformation, data analysis, housing affordability, AI’s impact on research, education spending, and why transparency matters more than ever. If you care about economic policy grounded in evidence instead of emotion, this episode is for you.
