  • The Launch of Augur V2 (The Lost Episode!)
    Video version at oldbull.tv 
    In honor of long-awaited launch of Augur V2, we managed to blow the cobwebs off our lost episode with Forecast Foundation co-founder Joey Krug. 
    If you caught the sneak peek in January, you'll know it's woefully overdue. But then again, so is V2... 
    As one of our earliest recordings, it initially came out a tad buggy and needed much TLC in the editing bay. So bear with us if you catch sight of the spit and bailing wire now and then. 
    Still, it was a fascinating conversation with an innovator on the DeFi & political forecasting frontier, & in light of the launch, we were determined to get it out!

  • The Art of the Possible: The Lib Dem Leadership Race (with April Preston)
    The UK's Liberal Democrats are about to hold a twice-rescheduled leadership election. Acting co-leader and establishment candidate Ed Davey is being challenged by Layla Moran. 
    In this episode, Sarbjit and Matthew are joined by Lib Dem Federal Board member April Preston, a Moran backer whose parsnips Davey isn't buttering. 
    They explore the curious disparity between the polling for this race and the pricing in the UK betting markets (e.g. this Smarkets contract: https://smarkets.com/event/940746/politics/uk/uk-party-leaders/liberal-democrats-leader-2018?utm_source=Podcast&utm_medium=biolink&utm_campaign=aotp), which might sound familiar to U.S. presidential election watchers.
