A bona fide living legend, Dr. Robert C. Merton was one of the first true scientists to enter - and revolutionize - the world of finance. A distinguished professor at both MIT and Harvard, Merton was awarded the 1997 Nobel Prize in Economics. Merton breaks down what he sees as a looming potential financial crisis, just over the horizon: the underfunding of the baby boom generation's retirement savings.

Gregg speaks with Anne Milgram, former Attorney General of New Jersey, about her pioneering work bringing data science into the world of criminal justice. Topics include: the US's incarceration dilemma, the development of a pretrial "risk assessment tool," and how even smart data can be contaminated by racial bias.

As the 2018 midterm elections approach, Gregg engages Ethan Roeder, political veteran and National Director of Data for both of Barack Obama’s presidential campaigns. Ethan offers his unique perspective on the intersection of data and politics, and how information is being leveraged for political gain.
