The Mixtape with Scott

S2E8: Interview with Paul Oyer, Labor Economist, Stanford and Author


Listen Later

In this week’s podcast episode, The Mixtape with Scott, I am interviewing Paul Oyer. Paul Oyer is a labor economist at Stanford University and author of several books, including "Everything I Needed to Know about Economics I learned from Online Dating", which is one of my favorite "popular general interest books explaining what economics is", as well as "An Economist Goes to the Game" which is about sports and economics. Links below for both. He's a fun, funny and interesting guy whose work in labor economics and personnel economics follows many of my own interests -- how firms hire, what they pay, discrimination, and platforms, just to name a few. I had a lot of fun interviewing Paul and hope you like it too. Thanks for your support, but I welcome even more of it by becoming a subscriber! And of course share this with you friends, family, loved ones, and especially those people you hate. Really rub it in their face with how good your taste in podcasts is.
